U... A Thing of Beauty

if you are reading this.. yes "u" are a beautiful thing as well. but this u (pronounced "you") is from the good people at nuun active hyrdation (and i must say nice work on the label brandon!). it's a vitamin water in an easy to carry and easy to use tablet. it's the perfect anytime flavored drink without the fake sugars and nastiness of most everything out there. it's got about 1/2 the electrolytes of regular nuun and a light vitamin profile. goji berry green tea is my favorite flavor so far.


although it's sensible for the every day active person or the "yoga lifestyle", i'll be working u into my race regiment for sure! it just makes sense for me. i'm not a big sweater, so the less electrolytes is fine, and why not ingest some vitamins?! i've done a few runs so far with it, both runs in slc with meltzer i had u in the bottle ~ worked beautifully and tasted fantastic.

Tri247 Interview With nuun's Tim Moxey

here is an interview with tim moxey, the owner/inventor of nuun. he also runs blue seventy wetsuits (formerly ironman wetsuits). he let's the cat out of the bag about the new nuun drink - "u". i'm very excited about this product. it's a low calorie vitamin drink in our tablet form. think of it as a vitamin water with less electrolytes for casual drinking and a healthy lifestyle, not during race hydration.
