Stridebox Review and Giveaway

 I was given the opportunity to review a StrideBox recently, and jumped at the chance.  StrideBox, like Bulubox is a monthly subscription box, but StrideBox is geared for RUNNERS!  YAY.

 Included in StrideBox is the Stride Guide which lists the products in the box as well as the product websites and most also have discount codes listed, so if you really like something you can get more of it for a discounted rate. 

Here is the loot that was inside.  I think I loved it all.

 There were a few things I knew I loved already like GU chomps, but in a flavor I had never tried before (bonus) and some new things I had never tried like mazambars and Lock Laces.

StrideBox costs $15 a month to subscribe to.  Let's check out the value on that.

Lock Laces $7.99
On-The-Go towels .99 each x3 $2.97
Mazamabar $1.80 (rough estimate)
Honey Stinger Gel Organic $1.35
Skratch exercise hydration mix 2 packets $2.76
GU Chomps $2.20
Hammer Energy Bar $2.50
Dr. Hoys Natural Pain Relief Gel ?  $1.00 ish
Total $22.57
Plus it came with a Bend a Bottle which was not on the Stride Guide .

I would say if you are looking to sample some new running products without having to go out and do the actual shopping yourself this is a great deal!

 In my opinion this was way better suited for me than Bulu Box and I will use everything in it except the scented On the Go towels for men, those my husband can have. 

AWESOME BOX!  Quick fact sheet from the box.


Want to try one for yourself for free?  Here is how.

a Rafflecopter giveaway I was sent a StrideBox free to review but was in no other way compensated for this post.  I was not obligated to give a favorable review in any way.  I really think this is a great way to try out new things!

  21. I'd love to try the lock laces, and to be able to read the ingredients of all those samples (stupid, unusual food allergies!). Were the lemon chomps good? I've wondered if they are too tart or if they're more like lemonade flavor.

  27. Would love to try out the on-the-go towels! My running group hangs out after our runs and being able to freshen up would be awesome!

  28. favorite thing in your box might be the gu chomps- LOVE them :)
    one thing I think that would be handy is to have different sample packets of protein powders bc face it, not everyone tastes that great. I'd rather have a sample and know its not for me, vs having a whole canister left of something i'm not thrilled about. (obviously on the plus side, if i like it, i will purchase it)
