Father's Day Gifts for Active dads

6/17/2016

ACTIVE.COM FATHER'S DAY GIFT GUIDE: For the active Dad, whether he is a a runner, hiker, cyclist, walker, rucker, sportsfan, or outdoorsman. I liked this list because it is a big one with many novel suggestions. Prices are supplied as well as links if you wish to “buy now”! Many may be available at local stores if you would rather buy something in person and take it home for wrapping. You can get some good ideas and shop for something similar that can be returned easily if it's not just right. One thing is for sure, someone at Active.com sure likes to shop Eddie Bauer!

Dads often take a back seat to Moms when it comes to their special day. Show your special guy how much he means to you and your family with a thoughtful gift. It doesn't need to be expensive.

RUN HAPPY!
