Hi Sean,
I just wanted to send you a quick update after my first proper test with Hammer Nutrition — and honestly, I’m extremely impressed with how well it worked.
Today I ran 30 km in 2:50:11, with an average pace of 5:40/km and an average heart rate of 157 bpm.
The fuelling worked brilliantly. I had consistent energy throughout the whole run, no stomach problems and, most importantly, no energy crash. I didn’t feel particularly fatigued at the end either, which was probably the biggest positive for me.
I also found that I didn’t need much additional plain water. I only drank enough to take the gels and Endurolytes, and I never felt that I needed more. My weight was 77.7 kg before the run and 77.1 kg afterwards.
And I have to mention the HEED flavour — I absolutely love it! 😂 It actually reminds me of a medicine I loved as a child, so somehow that makes it even better for me.
Before this, my fuelling strategy was basically a collection of random things I had picked up from the internet — a complete fuelling mess, to be honest. 😂 Having a proper, structured strategy this time made a huge difference.
I also wanted to say a massive thank you for getting the order out so quickly. The package arrived in just ONE DAY, which honestly felt like a delivery world record! 😂👏
So far, my first experience with Hammer has been fantastic, and I’m really looking forward to continuing to test the system as my marathon training progresses.
I’ve attached the run data as well, in case it’s useful.
Thanks again for all your help and support!
Best regards,
Roland
