AAA discounts on running gear

Marathon training means miles and miles of wear and tear—not just on your body, but also on your running shoes and apparel. The good news? AAA Members enjoy access to deals from top fitness and sportswear brands via the AAA Dollars Online Mall.

Here’s a breakdown of some of the gear you can snag for less and where to find it.

Discounts on running shoes

A good pair of running shoes can make or break your performance and comfort during a marathon. Using AAA, you can save and earn cash back at brands like Nike, Adidas and Under Armour.

Discounts on running apparel and accessories

Training during chilly early mornings or blazing afternoons? Gear up with high-performance, comfortable apparel from Athleta, Champion and Finish Line. Think sweat-wicking shirts, compression gear and running shorts that help optimize your training. Don't forget essentials like hydration bottles, sweatbands and phone armbands, all of which can be found at discount-friendly stores like Footlocker.

Discounts on sports tech

Stay on top of your pace and track your progress with tech tools like running watches and fitness trackers. Look for discounts on products from stores like Academy Sports to grab that Garmin or Fitbit at a friendlier price point. 

AAA Members can enjoy exclusive perks while shopping at the AAA Dollars Online Mall. Explore top brands and earn cash back rewards, all while taking advantage of retailer discounts. From stylish headbands to the latest sneakers, it’s the smartest way to shop and save without breaking the bank.

AAA travel discounts for destination races

Races take runners all over the country (and even the world). From Boston to Berlin, from New York to Napa Valley, destination races are an exciting part of marathon culture. But, as any marathon veteran knows, the cost of travel can often outpace the marathon entry fee itself. Here’s where AAA can truly be a game-changer.

Hotel discounts

Whether you’re staying in a cozy boutique hotel or an upscale chain, AAA Members often qualify for exclusive discounted rates. From Hilton properties to Marriott hotels, these AAA partnerships give you a comfortable place to stay without maxing out your travel budget.

Traveling to Chicago for its iconic marathon? AAA can help you find discounted accommodations right in downtown.

Flight and car rental savings

Planning a trip to a race location often means booking flights and renting cars. With AAA, you can snag discounts on car rentals from nationwide car rental services like Hertz, meaning you’ll have one less cost to worry about on race weekend.

For those flying to marquee marathons like the New York Marathon, AAA travel services can provide you with exclusive airfare deals and guidance through their network of travel agents. 

From your first pair of training sneakers to crossing the finish line at a dream race, AAA ensures marathon runners save money every step of the way.
