I have been using SNB for many years now. I have never chafed in a race because of it. It has saved my race and saved me from a lot of pain. I trust this product and would recommend it to everyone. It is great for any distance but especially ultras.

So every race I cover my toes in this stuff, it helps prevent blisters so much. One of the most important items I carry in my vest at all times.

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!!

If you love chafing out on the trails don't get this product!! Chafing can sometimes almost feel like it could end your race. The relief I've gotten with the product has been sooo much better than the other brands I've used.
