Elixir of the gods!
I love this product and can’t rate it highly enough. I’ve never really liked the taste of ginger too much but thought I would try this as it was recommended to me by a friend and fellow runner, I wasn’t very hopeful that I’d like it but was so wrong! It’s now my go to hydration for running, the flavour is really nice and the ginger isn’t overwhelming for anyone that isn’t a big fan of it. I recently did my first half with just 700ml of this and it really kept me going, it’s so good I’m not even going to bother trying anything else!

Helps to get me Started
I'd tried the standard Active Root at a stand in the RDS in Dublin for the Dublin City Marathon Expo last year and decided to give it a go as I struggled over longer distances with nausea after taking gels and such like on board. So far I've tried it twice over longer distances and have found it much better at providing energy and at limiting the nausea. I find myself also using it now before short runs as a source of energy and hydration. When purchasing the Active Root I decided to try this version with peppermint and I really like this before I start a race as a source of energy.
