Tailwind provides hydration, fuel, and recovery products to keep you going and feeling great throughout your races and adventures. We will have Tailwind Endurance Fuel on course at the one and only Main Aid Station.
Using Endurance Fuel satisfies your caloric, electrolyte, and hydration needs. It is designed to be incredibly easy on the digestive system. The primary energy sources are dextrose (glucose) and sucrose, with a full complement of electrolytes. This approach to fueling has been the solution for many athletes, allowing them to avoid the dreaded gut bomb, bonking, and nausea that can come with more extended endurance events. Tailwind Endurance Fuel is vegan, gluten-free, and non-gmo.
