DuPage Shopper: Father's Day Finds

Need a few ideas for gifts for Father's Day? If Dad's a runner, we have a few possible options.

Father's Day is Sunday, June 16. While walking around Downtown Downers Grove recently, I stopped in to the Runners Grove to see what new items they had in stock. It just so happens a few of the items were great gift ideas for the dad who likes to run or participate in triathlons. 

Buying Dad a tie for Father's Day is pretty clichéd, but for a dad who gets miles in before or after work these ties are sure to please. 

And, if Dad participates in marathons or other endurance races, it's quite likely he's experienced sore, bloody nipples (ick). Runners Grove sells "Nip Guard" to stop chafing and bleeding.

Runners Grove is located at 5155 Main St., Downers Grove.
