- Who it's for
- Endurance athletes doing long or ultra-distance events who need high carbohydrate intake and struggle to eat solid food at high output or altitude. Hosts reference use cases from marathons to 200-mile races.
- What people are saying
- Hosts consistently praise the mellow, not-overly-sweet flavor and easy digestion for a 100g-carb product. One host notes pairing it with electrolyte tablets to boost sodium, suggesting it may need a supplement for salt needs on longer efforts.
- Worth noting
- Sodium content may be insufficient on its own for very long efforts, per one host who adds Precision Hydration tablets. Serving size delivers 50g carbs, and hosts mention using it at 300–400 calories per flask depending on intensity.

Sugar, Sugar, and more SUGAR! That's how you finish 200 mile races. The name says it all - Super high carb is the best drink mix on the market. It goes down easy, isnt gritty, and in general, makes me feel like a superhero.

This one is for the runners with really high carb needs on the run. It has 50g of carbs per serving. This is Kim's go-to for long runs and the marathon. She combines lemon lime with Precision Hydration tablets to boost the sodium content in her bottle.

First race relying on Skratch High Carb, and it worked! I mostly ran a 300-calorie concentration, but I'll be bumping it up to 400 calories per flask next time. The flavor is mellow and actually tastes like real fruit. Somewhere around mile 70, it had me craving a bowl of cold raspberries.
