And no matter how long you've been visiting, you picked an AMAZING time to pop in because we're celebrating my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas {read my post announcing this series HERE if you don't know what I'm talking about}.
Today is Day 4 of my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas! And the prize today is pretty FAN-FREAKIN'-TASTIC! Although, to be honest, all of the prizes are AMAZEBALLS! If I could enter my own giveaways I'm pretty sure I would enter each and every one of them in this series because they are just that awesome.
Up for grabs today are: 4 Nuun Prize Packs.
For today, DAY FOUR, four winners will be selected, each winning a Nuun Prize Pack (which includes a nuun Headsweats visor {white or black}, water bottle and four tubes of nuun active {grape, watermelon, tropical and orange}).

I will be the first to admit that I tend to hydrate with water. This isn't a huge deal, well, until you are sweating. Science wasn't my favorite subject, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be surprised to know that sweat contains more than just standard H2O, which means you need to replenish more than that during and after your workouts.

One of the 'things' that you need to refill are electrolytes. Electrolytes play a key function in maintaining fluid balance, and supporting normal body function - can you say 'importante?!' [that means important in Spanish... another subject that wasn't my fave].

That's where nuun comes in! nuun contains an optimal blend of electrolytes which keeps you hydrated for all levels of activities - whether you're running a marathon or a marathon of errands. The hydration aid comes in tablet form, so it's easy to pack for racecations or throw in a desk drawer to have after a sweaty runch. [For those of you who've never tried it, it's less of a 'sports drink, in-your-face' sort of taste, but if you like more flavor, just add an extra tablet or two.]

Entering this giveaway (along with the other #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas giveaways) is easy-peasy! Simply use the Rafflecopter widget listed below on the giveaway blog post and cross your fingers. Some entries are available daily so I'd HIGHLY recommend entering early and often. (Shoot, I would even go as far as suggesting you set an alarm to remind you to come back to this page every 24 hours so you can take advantage of as many entries as possible!)
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Now, the nitty gritty details... All entries are verified, so please make sure to do whatever the required action for the entry is or it will be disqualified. I would hate for you to miss out on winning due to a technicality, so if you are going to click the option, make sure you do whatever it asks or a new, random winner will be selected in your place.
Also, this giveaway will last seven days, with the winners being picked (and notified) on the eighth day. The winners will have 24 hours to reply to the congratulations email from me to claim their prizes. That means, for this giveaway, it will end on December 10th at 11:59pm PST and the FOUR winners will be chosen on December 11th.
And, finally, the winners must have a US mailing address. International shipping seems to cost an arm and a leg these days, and customs is a major headache, so to make it easier (and cheaper) on the brands who have offered up their products, the winners must live in United States of America (or at least have an address we can ship to within the US).
With that said, BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERS! And don't forget to stop back tomorrow to see what is up next in my #12DaysOfCarleesChristmas (I promise you do NOT want to miss out on any of these giveaways!)!

My normal recovery is with water or chocolate milk. I'm not much into sports drinks but sometimes feel as though my sodium levels need to be increased.
I use nuun post-long run. I like the taste, and it works great. Occasionally, I get headaches later in the day if I don't continue to hydrate well after a hot long run day. When that happens, I have a nuun, and they usually disappear!
Nuun saves me from getting terrible headaches from electrolyte depletion. I usually drink a full water bottle of it prior to a long run, and definitely before and mountain biking.
I love nuun! I use it on all my long runs and for post run hydration. (And sometimes the "All Day" when I want to add flavor to my water)
I love the nuun energy cherry limeade!
My normal recovery is just plain water! Sometimes Nuun during especially hot days!
i drink soda/ sp bad
I love recovering with Nuun! It is my favorite post run treat nowadays!
I usually recover and hydrate with water. Some sports drinks don't sit well with me, so I haven't tried many options. Nuun is something I've heard of, but never had a chance to try!
I love recovering with Nuun, and sometimes I also use chocolate milk!
Usually just water for me.

Besides plain ol' water, I have been using Nuun for recovery and hydration--I love it!!
It's all about Nuun for me! I love it during long runs and to help with recovery!
Coffee, then water.
I used nuun for the first time during on of my races and it prevented muscle cramping and DOMS. I'll be using it for races and long runs in the future.
I LOVE Nuun for rehydrating! Nuun and water.
I'm a Nuun-aholic. All day in the cup most days, Energy for an extra boost, and traditional for post-workout. Fantastic!
I drink a lot of water after.
I loooooove Nuun! I use it before, during and after working out. Even on days when I don't.
Right now I just have regular water, so this would be great to try.
Syntha 6 Aminos in my water
Love nuun! I drank it before I got into running bc it helped me drink water every day. Now I rely on it for my long runs too!
Currently I hydrate after a long run by drinking water or diluted sports drink, since I don't care for full strength sports drinks.

Nuun (watermelon is my favorite) and peanut butter is my fav recovery!!

My favourite way to hydrate is by using NUUN! I can't drink any other sports drink, this is the only one that doesn't upset my stomach, plus it helps that they have so many great flavours!!!
Since we have winter like temps in southern ontario, my go to after a cold outdoor run, is to make a "nuun tea" boil water, add your tab (citrus fruit, current go to) and enjoy! Hydration, plus warmth, win win!!!!
In love with nuun too!!
I usually just use water, but I would like to try out hydration products like Nuun!

I love Nuun! Grape is my fave but sadly very hard to find 🙁
i use Nuun pre run (always the night before and the morning of). Sometimes during the run - depending on how long i take nuun...and i love the water!
Finding Nuun was a GAME CHANGER for me! I will wake up with leg cramps because I'm not properly hydrated with the right electrolytes. I'm drinking a lot, but when I run I'll sweat TONS of the minerals out, so plain water doesn't cut it. A Nuun every run day is my game plan now to get rid of cramping in the middle of the night!
I love nuun! I pronounced it wrong forever but finally got it right a few months ago lol. I guess it's two u's not two n's :) The energy one can be a lifesaver when I'm unable to grab a coffee!
Love me some cold chocolate milk
I drink tons of water!

I love chocolate milk after a really tough run. Living in Texas, NUUN during my run is essential. Still in mourning that they discontinued Kona Cola.
