So whether you’re looking for gear for your CrossFit-obsessed boyfriend or kitchen gadgets for your healthy-foodie best friend, we’ve got you covered. Keep reading to get all of our gift guides in one easy-to-find place.

Holiday Gifts for Runners
If you’re on the hunt for the perfect holiday gift for the runner in your life, look no further. Run215 founder Jon Lyons picks five awesome and unique holiday gifts for runners, from the best fanny pack on planet Earth (a marathon runner’s must-have) to drink coasters made from old race bibs (seriously!).

Holiday Gifts for CrossFit Athletes
We tapped Jeff Liebreich of Fearless Athletics for this one. He offers up his favorite gear for tough workouts, a must-read book, jeans tailor-made for athletes’ bodies, and more.

Holiday Gifts for Earth Lovers
Green Philly Blog editor-in-chief Julie Hancher spills what’s on her eco-friendly wish list this year, including a bundle of locally made goods your Earth-loving Secret Santa will flip for.

Holiday Gifts for Beauty Queens
When you’ve got a beauty question, it’s handy to have Jolene Hart on speed dial. She’s the Philly-based author of Eat Pretty, a book all the nutrition-beauty link. So of course we couldn’t resist asking her to weigh in on our gift guide for beauty queens (or kings). And she didn’t disappoint, with services and products sure to brighten any beauty queen’s day.

Holiday Gifts for Cyclists
If your gift recipient spends more time on two wheels than her own two feet, you’ve come to the right place. Avid local cyclist Gary Brown clues us in on five gifts any cyclist will love.

Holiday Gifts for Healthy Foodies
Sherrie Scaglione Castellano knows what’s up when it comes to foodie gifts. She’s the brains behind local food blog With Food + Love, so we asked her to share creative gift ideas for healthy food-lovers. Her picks include kitchen gadgets, cooking classes, boozy gifts and more.

Holiday Gifts for Yogis
No, a pair of Lululemon pants aren’t the only things to get for the yogi in your life. Anjali Power Yoga’s Kristin Monzo went outside the box with her yogi gifts, because she knows better than anyone that another pair of black tights are, well, just another pair of black tights. Wow your yogi with one of these gifts instead.

Fitness Stocking Stuffers for $25 or Less
You didn’t think we’d forget the stockings, did you? We tapped our own wish lists for this one, with stuffable gifts that won’t break the bank but that will still get someone excited to hit the gym.
