Small-Group Presents: 5K/Marathon Teams

Logo-Branded Gifts for Race Day

It’s race day! Hundreds of runners have gotten up early and picked up their race packets, and now are eagerly waiting at the starting line. They have trained for months, some with the hopes of setting a new personal record, others just wanting to reach the goal of finishing.

The excitement, camaraderie, and general feeling of goodwill at 5K and marathon events make them excellent opportunities to get your brand’s message out in a positive environment. Races give your company a chance to reach a specific group of people in a way that promotes healthy living and builds relationships with potential customers and corporate partners.

Whether your company is organizing your own race, sponsoring one by a nonprofit, or putting together a running team, logo-branded merch allows your business to get the most out of the high promotional potential of 5Ks and marathons. Corporate giveaways such as clothing, running gear, food items, and accessories add to the fun of any running event, and they allow you to put your logo on products that people will use and appreciate.

Custom T-Shirts for 5K Teams With Fast Printing

Gear up for your 5K or marathon with custom-printed tees and sweatshirts for your team! At Merchology, we offer direct apparel printing, which is a faster, lower-cost, higher-durability decoration method for merch. If you’re looking to customize a large number of tees for your race event, whether they’re for your team, your fans, or your spectators, direct apparel printing is a convenient solution that gets quality printed merch in your hands quickly!

Logo-Branded Water Bottles 

Hydration is a top concern for runners at every level. That’s why custom reusable water bottles are a vital part of any race swag bag. When you give attractive and sturdy water bottles to runners, they’ll continue to use them for months to come, and they will see your logo every time they take a sip. Merchology has dozens of bottles to choose from and they’re offered in a wide variety of colors, price points, materials, and styles.

  

Corporate Event Bags

Race days are busy days for everyone involved: runners, family members, spectators, and organizers. That’s why a sturdy, logo-branded bag is a vital piece of giveaway merchandise for any marathon or 5K. Merchology’s custom bags will help participants keep up with their wallets, keys, snacks, and other merch on race day. Plus, when you choose an attractive and high-quality bag from Merchology, recipients will use them again and again, keeping your brand on their minds and on display as they run their daily errands or use them for travel.

  

Corporate Candy and Snacks

After pushing through the final miles of a race, runners have one thing on their minds: snacks! The post-race snack pack is so important that there are entire races, such as the Hot Chocolate 15K/5K series, themed around these goodie giveaways. If you’re looking for swag ideas for an upcoming 5K, consider logo-branded candy and snacks. You’ll be helping tired runners to refuel and celebrate their accomplishment, which is bound to leave a positive impression.

 

Branded Outdoors Gear

Runners have to be equipped and ready for all types of weather if they are going to be consistent with their training. Plus, they generally don’t know what conditions will be like on race day until just a few days ahead. You can help them always be prepared by giving logo embroidered race apparel and accessories, so athletes are always ready to face the elements. Products like a custom poncho for rain or a cooling towel for the summer heat will allow runners to stay focused and performing their best. And with your company logo on these items, they’ll remember your brand every time they use them.

Logo-Branded Fitness Tech  

Make a big impact by giving fitness tech as your branded race swag! Imagine the positive impression if your company sponsored a local running club by providing each member with a custom fitness tracker to help them train for an upcoming race (and every race after). Or you could give some branded wireless earbuds on race morning, to make sure every runner can keep their motivational music going mile after mile. Fitness devices make excellent corporate gifts, as recipients continue to use and appreciate them for months or years to come.

  

Custom Moisture-Wicking Shirts

Custom T-shirts are as integral to 5K races as chip timers and water stations. Take your logo-branded marathon shirts to the next level by choosing one of our moisture-wicking options by top brands such as Under Armour or Nike. These high-quality t-shirts feature a material that helps keep runners dry and cool even as they work up a sweat, making them the perfect merchandise for a 5K or marathon.
