We've told you it's the next best thing in sports nutrition. We've extolled the science, waxed poetic over the features and benefits. But what do the athletes in the trenches have to say about our new Roctane Ultra Endurance Energy Gel? Read onβ¦
"Can I get some of that? Where can I get some? That's the stuff where you go on a 4-hour run, come home, and clean your house."
- Charlie Ehm, 6-time Ironman Canada finisher, 2-time Hawaii Ironman qualifier, competitive ultrarunner and cyclist
"In the sport of cycling, ride fuel and nutrition is so important. You will not find more bang for your buck in any other nutritional product. GU Roctane will change the way
athletes look at nutrition. There is nothing like it."
-Saul Raisin, professional cyclist
"The stuff is like gold, traded behind closed doors in the old days. It is similar to Coca-Cola - gives the extra kick to the late miles. I rely on it mentally too."
-Chris Hauth, 2006 Ironman Coeur d Alene Champion
"I hope it fails miserably as a product and that the supply is limited to me. I refuse to recommend it to any friends that I race or train with, and I will deny ever trying it! -OK, it's great."
-Blair Clark, Senior Vice President of Sales, Smith Optics, competitive cyclist
"Roctane is like three aid stations wrapped up into one."
-Chris Miller, 2-time finisher, Hawaii Ironman World Championship
"The wind on the bike was brutal, followed by sweltering heat on the run. I'm impressed by everyone who finished in the
conditions we had today. Having Roctane to help me through the roughest moments was a lifesaver! It gave me added
energy and focus when I needed it most."
- Michellie Jones, 2006 Ironman World Champion, 3-time Ironman Champion, 2000 Olympic Silver Medalist, referring to Ironman Arizona 2008
"Heading into the run, I had a big gap to close to move into the top three. it was all about relentless focus and power, and I managed to harness both and pick off a few of my competitors. Roctane helped get me there for certain! I was so thankful for the
boost."
-Heather Gollnick, 5-time Ironman Champion, referring to Ironman Arizona 2008
"I've used Roctane since the very beginning. Back then it came in a Ziploc bag. In training, I seemed to be able to recover faster and to be able to push harder on those super intense days. Using
Roctane was like using rocket fuel. I used it in my second Ironman and won."
-Wendy Ingraham, 9-time Ironman Champion
"I love the new Roctane. It's like having a rocket in your pocket."
-Craig Alexander, 2006 Ironman 70.3 World Champion, 2nd overall 2007 Ironman World Championship
"It seems to provide a more steady and long-lasting energy source. On a very long run through Yosemite, it was the only thing I had left to eat for the last two hours
through Lyell Canyon. I saved it because I knew it would be something that would make a difference when I was starting to fade. I don't use a lot of other nutritional
products when I run other than GU. It's been around so long and has been very reliable. Why experiment?"
-Tim Twietmeyer, Western States 100-mile Endurance Run Champion
"Roctane aids in my performance every time I use it by giving me more energy throughout my system. This includes mental clarity. It also is outstanding for recovery."
-Stephen Koch, first snowboarder to descend the seven summits, professional mountain guide
"I've noticed that Roctane seems to help stave off cramps for me. I've also used it as a recovery tool - mix a couple gels in a bottle of water and drink it post event. helps repair the muscles."
-Yuri Hauswald, professional endurance mountain bike racer
