FAVORITE GU PRODUCT: ROCTANE Energy Gel
FAVORITE NUTRITION HACK
I put gels into a flask and add water so I can take gels faster, include water with them, and not worry about accidentally dropping litter!
WHAT MOTIVATES YOU TO COMPETE? WHAT'S YOUR WHY?
I love the process of training for an event and the commitment to showing up and trying to be better every day. I love competing because it's a mirror into who you are and teaches you that you are capable of so much more than you think, that hard work pays off, how to be graceful and look for lessons when things DON'T go your way, and is amazing to be part of a community too! I also love traveling to new places and meeting people!
WHAT'S YOUR GU MOMENT?
Most of my races are 100 miles or 7-day mountain bike races. I know that ROCTANE is a key contributor to being able to perform day after day!
