Belt bags are all the rage right now. They can store their phone, keys, and wallet in this waterproof, uber lightweight, and minimalist pouch that can go with them from their run to brunch and errands afterwards.

With its super portable size, ergonomic grip, and 150 minutes of charge time, the Theragun Mini is the ideal gift for that person who's always traveling around the world to run marathons (or just makes really good use of the hotel gym). I got this for a few family members last year and it was a total hit.

Sure, it'd be great if you could snag them a spa day, but with this portable shiatsu back, shoulder, and neck massager, they can give themself a massage in their PJs or at their WFH desk while responding to e-mails. Hey, for how hard they work out, they deserve a little TLC!
