If you hadn’t seen in my last few posts, TOMORROW I will be running Ragnar FL Keys with some wonderful friends as team NUUNaritaville. I have been pretty excited about doing another relay since I ran Hood to Coast last summer. It was just such a fun experience — the running is great, but more than that you get to spend some close time with good friends (or make new ones!). I’m really looking forward to another great relay with all the jimmy buffet references you can think of {Wastin’ away again in NUUNaritaville}!
With a long distance relay, staying hydrated and well-fueled are very important! In addition, you may have to run in the middle of the day with hot sun beating down on you. Nuun is a great drink to keep you hydrated by increasing your electrolyte intake during those hot sweaty runs. Plus, it will help you be ready for the next leg of your adventure.
At Hood to Coast, we were given some skin products from Naawk, and they were nice enough to provide my Ragnar FL Keys team with some samples as well. Naawk has created some great products — my favorites are the sunscreen and the lip balm. The sunscreen comes in SPF 30 and 50, and smells amazing. Good smelling sunscreen may have helped our van stay a little less stinky by the third leg at HTC!
So, in honor of my second relay, and first event of 2014, Naawk and Nuun have been generous to provide me with some items for a giveaway so you can be prepared for your next outdoor adventure!! If you win this giveaway, you will win a race day kit from Naawk (pictured below), and your choice of a Nuun Active Hydration 4-pack. Enter on the widget here!
We’ve been doing some last minute shuffling of runners due to an unexpected injury from one team member, so I’m not totally sure what leg I will be running. But if you’re interested in following along and seeing some of the FL Keys beauty, find our team on twitter using #NUUNaritaville
I love the blueberry pomegranate (I think that is the right name!) all day hydration! GOOD LUCK on your relay π
HAVE FUN!!!!!
I love lemonade and fruit punch but have been drinking a lot of triberry and lemon lime!!
Have fun in #NUUNaritaville!I. ‘ll be following y’all since the Keys are on my list of places to visit.
I’ll be on the look out for the other Nuun flavors, I’ve only seen lemon lime and triple berry in my usual stores.
Even with the runner shuffles and the Changes in Latitude, you won’t be wasting away and Come Monday, it’ll be alright! (My hubby is a parrot head, so naturally all the Jimmy Buffet lyrics and playing in my head! I could go on, but I blew out my flip flop.). Have a great run!!
Love the Jimmy Buffet quotes. We had a bunch on our vans!
Definitely a lemonade active hydration gal! =)
Have so much fun!
Lemonade, watermelon, and lemon tea are the flavors of the month for me. Have a great time!
I love Nuun!! My favorite flavor is grape!! Yum!!
I love nuun. Good luck racing!
I would love to do a relay someday! Problem is, I’m slow and running and I have a love/hate relationship! π Have a great time! I love Nuun! My fav is strawberry lemonade and I really want to try cherry limeade!
