Tailwind Nutrition Endurance Fuel, Electrolyte & Hydration Sports Drink Mix Powder with Caffeine, Gluten-Free, Vegan, Raspberry Buzz, 50 Servings (Caffeinated)

Hi! I’m an ultra runner from Maine. I’ve been running long distances for the better part of 11 years and I remember the first time I tried Tailwind nutrition, running my first 50 mile race I was starting to get cramps in my thighs, having not taken in any electrolytes just water a fellow racer offered me some of her tailwind which I was nervous about since I have a sensitive stomach but she said I needed it. It stopped my cramps and I felt great the rest of the race! Immediately ordered some and it’s now a key part of all my training and racing. I always have a bag, use so much for every race and have never had any major stomach issues, as a matter of fact I rarely have tummy troubles during a race unless I ate something weird. It works incredibly well! Keeps you hydrated and fueled and tastes great! Don’t forget it’s needed in those cold running months too! We’re still sweating under all those layers and can get dehydrated, also if you mix tailwind a little thicker it can help prevent your water from freezing on some of those long cold runs. I even have used it after having a sickness that had me running a fever so that I could stay hydrated! I mainly stick to the lemon and unflavored variety but am planning on trying the caffeinated flavors now that I am running over night races up too 100 miles. I also have yet to try the recovery drinks but they look absolutely delicious and I have a feeling they will taste better than the typical protein powders I add to my smoothies. I absolutely love tailwind and am so glad that women offered me some that day!

Great combination of hydration and fuel for endurance events and long training runs. Simple sugars make it super easy to digest -- so no bad GI vibes, and the flavor is very light, so it doesn't cause sticky mouth syndrome and/or cause you to stop hydrating from being overwhelmed by the sweetness.I can generally run marathon distances on nothing but Tailwind, but like to combine it with a banana or two, or some fig newtons, or all of the above... anything that's real food and not goo, gel, etc.

I've been an endurance cyclist for over 30 years, and Tailwind Nutrition Endurance Fuel has become an essential part of my training and long-distance rides. Especially during the intense heat of Southern summers, it delivers exactly what I need... hydration, calories, and electrolytes... without upsetting my stomach or leaving me feeling depleted.As I’ve gotten older, I’ve found it increasingly difficult to prevent muscle cramps with traditional sports drinks. Since switching to Tailwind, that’s no longer an issue. The cramping has completely stopped, and my performance and recovery have noticeably improved.This product truly lives up to its promise. Highly recommended for endurance athletes who need reliable, well-balanced fuel.

I absolutely love using Tailwind! Its light flavor is refreshing and makes hydration enjoyable, without being heavy on my stomach. I rely on this product, especially during my runs in the sweltering heat of South Florida. The combination of electrolytes and carbohydrates keeps my energy levels up while ensuring I stay properly hydrated, even on the hottest days. It's a game changer for my training sessions!

Product tastes good, but the ziplock keeps tearing away, so far on my two 48oz bags, it didn't happen on the 28oz bags yet. This last shipment the ziplock tore off the first time, for what i pay for the product i'd expect a better ziplocking system.

Was recommended this mix from a buddy that runs ultra marathons (I’m barely getting into running my first marathon) and I love it!The powder mixes very well and tastes amazing! Super refreshing, doesn’t taste like fake sugar, and doesn’t leave a nasty after taste in your mouth. I’ll usually drink this the day before a long run and during my long run; with that I feel great, replenished, lots of energy, and don’t feel as fatigued afterwards.I’ll also throw two scoops (smaller dose) if I’m feeling tired and dehydrated and this mix helps get me back to that normal level.Out of all the electrolyte drinks on the market, this is hands down one of my favorite.

Solid electrolyte supplement for long runs and training runs. Neutral flavor settles well in my stomach and has a great value for price. The calories are a great slow release of energy when I can’t get food in.

Husband approved. Good stuff. Uses it for his workouts.
