Products – Ultima Replenisher
Long have I wanted a replacement for Gatorade. I have never really liked that product, but it seemed like the “breakfast of champions.”
On my long runs, I typically run with two 20 ounce Ultimate Direction hand-held water bottles. One with water, the other with home-mixed Gatorade.
By the end of my long runs, my teeth are covered in sugary residue, and I can’t stand to drink any more Gatorade.
I started searching for a replacement. Low and behold, I walked into a favorite running shop and they had about 5 different variety of the Ultima Replenisher.
I picked up one packet of each, and tried them out on two long runs.
Report: Two thumbs up!
I love this product. It tastes great, does not feel sugary (probably because there’s no sugar in it!), and keeps me going into the wee miles.
So long, Gatorade!
NOTE: I have not tried the new Gatorade product, and will have to, for variety sake, but for now, I am really impressed with the Ultima product, and you know me and gear. Once I like something, it’s like moving a mountain to get me to change…
