SLO Roadrunner members have been invited to try the hot new triathlon
bag being offered by DT Multisport. Dean Theadore, owner of DT Multisport
has created one of the finest and most efficient triathlon bags
on the market today. Dean, a triathlete himself, designed the bag
with input from triathletes throughout the state. The bag literally
has a pocket or compartment for everything you could passably need
to insure smooth and efficient transitions. The bag is available
at www.triathlonbag.com and Dean is offering a 10% discount to all
Roadrunner members. Dean also provided us with a demo which I will
have at workouts for everyone to check out. I will also be happy
to loan it to any of you who would like to try it out at your next
race. It's a great bag, give it a look.
As I hope you all know by now, Hammer Nutrition is one of our main
sponsors, offering some of finest nutritional products and vitamins
on the market today. Recently it was recommended to me by Jesse
Perez that I try one of their products called Race Boost. Race Boost
is a powder that is consumed for 4 days prior to a race and helps
reduce the production of lactic acid, which we all know can cause
your legs to feel like lead. Using Race Boost, Jesse PR'd at our
annual time trial and at Wildflower. Although Jesse has been training
very hard he does attribute some of his success to the use of Race
Boost. Taking note of Jesse's success I decided I should try it
myself. I took it for the prescribed four days prior to my second
foray into bike racing at the Sisquoc Road Race and I actually finished
the race. I will admit that it's hard to quantify just how valuable
these things are but I really do believe this product helped and
would feel confident about recommending them to anyone looking for
a good pre-race supplement. I also use another Hammer Nutrition
product called Anti-Fatigue Caps and recommend them as well. Anti-Fatigue
Caps can be used before a workout or competition and reduces ammonia
in the blood which interferes with the production of glycogen. We
all know we can get lost in the nutritional supplements jungle and
can easily waste a lot of money on things that promise miracles
and don't deliver, but I firmly believe that these two products
will make a difference in your training and racing. Give em a try,
you'll thank me for it.
GH Sports has new summer hours and will be open 10 to 5 Tuesday
through Saturday, closed Sunday and Monday. If you haven't been
to GH lately be sure and go by as they have many new products. One
of the newest arrivals which I have personally used is the new bib
cycling shorts, they're as good as I have ever worn. They also have
new coolmax cycling jerseys, running shorts, and a variety of coolmax
running tops. Check them out, Greg and Jane have put a lot of time
and thought into designing some of the finest athletic apparel on
the market.
Train well and continue to support our sponsors!
