MY
GLEUKOS STORY
I've never had success with the various sports drinks
I have tried over the past years until I had the
opportunity to try Gleukos. Whenever I tried taking
a sports drink before of during a run, it almost
always lead to some sort of stomach disaster or
queasy feelings from the taste. So I started avoiding
sports drinks all together. However, I started running
a lot of races, in particular, marathons where taking
water just wasn't enough and I needed the added
energy provided from a sports drink. When I was
presented with the opportunity to try Gluekos, I
decided to give it a go and stared using it during
my training runs. Gleukos isn't as sweet as some
of the other sports drinks and I found it easier
to drink and digest, not to mention it didn't foam
up in my water bottle. The true test came some months
later when I was running a marathon in Italy and
it was +35°, my worst marathon fear ever. I
wound up drinking Gleukos before the race and then
throughout the entire race and made it the finish
in one piece.
You can
buy Gleukos in handy individual packets which
is great for traveling, as I have used. It also
comes in volume packs which is good for day to
day training.
