I am obsessed with Trail Runner Nation podcasts. Time and time again the podcasts have kept me company on my long runs. Every single podcast inspires me one way or another. If you haven’t listened, you really ought to download a few.
A few months ago I listened to an interview with the developers of Tailwind nutrition. It’s all natural and organic and is supposed to replace your gels and chews etc. Nutrition all in one. And it’s as simple as pour, shake & go as the package reads.
I didn’t log on and ordered the stuff online right away. I kept it back in my mind though. Sounded like something that deserved exploring. It’s always encouraging to find out about new products developed by endurance athletes.
Since that initial interview I’ve heard about Tailwind a zillion more times. The podcasts now feature a Tailwind Tip of the Trail. A few weeks ago, I finally put my card down and ordered samples online. My package arrived this week. I haven’t fully tested the fuel yet so I can’t give you a proper review. But I love the pink performance enhancing kokopelli and hand written note that came in the package.
I am encouraged by the tagline – Endurance Fuel That Works. So stay tuned and I will give you a proper review/report after my next long run.
