All Products from Squirrel's Nut Butter! by Squirrels Nut Butter — I use Squirrel’s Nut Butter for long runs, trail running, and race days to help prevent chafing and irritation. As I’ve increased my mileage and moved deeper into ultrarunning, protecting problem areas becomes increasingly important. SNB is simple to apply, holds up well during long efforts, and is a product I genuinely use and would recommend to other runners and endurance athletes. All natural, quick and easy to apply. No stress!!
Original Energy Gel by GU Energy — These are great for anyone running any distance. They give you the ability to utilize the full potential of your hard work and training. I like to start a long race or training session with a couple no caffeine, then come in later with the caffeine. I’ve tried them all and GU is superior. If I’m running shorter distance or long distance this is the way to go. Get the most out of your training and be the best on race day. Great Flavor!

Maelstrom Tactical Hydration Backpack,Water Pack with 2L Water Bladder by Amazon — I’ve been really impressed with this hydration backpack. I use it for my longer training runs and trail runs, and it stays comfortable even as the miles add up. It carries the water, nutrition, and other essentials I need without feeling overly bulky. The fit is secure while running, and having everything within reach makes fueling and hydration much easier. I’d definitely recommend it for runners training for longer distances, trail races, or ultras. It has not rubbed me or irritated me one time.
High Protein Bars by David Protein — David Protein Bars have become one of my favorite options when I want something high in protein without a lot of sugar. The flavor is excellent, and they’re easy to throw in my bag for training, races, or a busy day. I like them before or after a workout, and they’re especially useful afterward when I want a convenient source of protein for recovery. With high protein and no sugar, they’re an easy way to add protein without a lot of extra calories. Definitely one I keep on hand.
Total Beets Original Powder by Force Factor — I use Force Factor Total Beets as part of my endurance training routine, especially before longer runs and harder workouts. It’s an easy and convenient way to add beets to my nutrition, and I like having it as part of my pre-workout routine. The powder mixes easily and is a good option for runners, cyclists, or anyone doing endurance-based training. I’ve enjoyed using it and plan to keep it in my training routine.

As the miles add up, taking care of your feet becomes extremely important, especially during trail runs and ultras. I like having products specifically designed to help protect high friction areas and keep my feet comfortable. It’s easy to carry in my gear and gives me another tool for preventing small foot issues from turning into big problems during long efforts. Definitely something I want with me for long training days and races. As an endurance athlete you have to take quality care of your wheels.
Adventure Packet Sampler by Squirrels Nut Butter — I really like the Adventure Packet Sampler because the individual packets are perfect for long runs, trail races, and race day drop bags. They’re small enough to carry in a hydration pack or pocket, so I can reapply when needed instead of hoping one application lasts the entire day. With both Happy Toes and anti-chafe options included, it gives me protection for my feet and other high friction areas. For anyone spending hours on the trail, this is a convenient addition to your race day kit.
Adventure Beard Balm by Squirrels Nut Butter — I spend a lot of time outdoors training and racing, so I like products that are simple and made for an active lifestyle. Squirrel’s Nut Butter Adventure Beard Balm keeps your beard soft and conditioned while helping with dryness. I also really like the clean outdoor scent from the cedarwood, fir needle and sweet orange. Another great product from SNB that fits the adventure lifestyle.
Apeman Strong Apparel by Apeman Strong — Apeman Strong is one of my favorite apparel brands and one I have worn for years. Their ventilated hats are great for running and training, especially in the heat, and their T shirts are extremely comfortable for workouts or everyday wear. What really separates Apeman Strong for me is what the brand represents. It is about strength, perseverance, overcoming obstacles and using your strength to help others. I like wearing something that not only performs well but represents a mindset I believe in. Find the strong. Be the strong. Share the strong.
Best Sellers Bamboo Underwear Boxers by Bamboo Cool — These are hands down the most comfortable underwear I’ve ever worn. I wear Bamboo Cool for running, working, training, and everyday life. They stay comfortable even during long runs, help protect against rubbing and chafing, and keep everything supported without feeling restrictive. When you’re running for hours, comfort and protection in that area matter, and these have been excellent for me. They’re the only underwear I want to wear whether I’m putting in miles or putting in a full day at work.
