Sharing Saturday - PROBAR BOLT Energy Chews

I mentioned it a while back, but I was lucky enough to be asked to be a part of the PROBAR Blogger Network. One of the many AMAZING perks of this relationship is being sent product to try out, stock up on, etc.

Aren't they lucky to have me?! HA!

Well, one of my FAVORITE products from PROBAR are their BOLT Energy Chews. Like, legit, they are the way I fuel for EVERY long run.

Lucky for you, I have a couple extra boxes in my cupboard and I figured, instead of continuing to stockpile and hoard them, I would offer one of those cases up to a lucky reader. I mean, that is the point of Sharing Saturday, right?!

    I've used Gu and Powerbar chews in the past. Would love to give these ProBar's a try!

    Green tea, SOS, oatmeal 1 hour before the run.
    Vega Energizer (sugar free) 30 mins before the run.
    40 mins into the run, Vega hydrator/SOS, honey stinger chews
    ...and every hour after that, pocket fuel.
    I'm down to try these if they make me fast like you.

    Ezekiel Bread with 1 tbs natural peanut butter and half a banana in the morning before my run. Just getting into longer distances so I haven't actually tried any gels or chews. I'm interested in testing some out though. On my longest run i did bring a small packet of fruit snacks.

    I've never tried these. I've tried all manner of other things, and some disagree with my tummy (the blackberry Hammer gels) and others don't (any kind of gel or Gu or Clif Shot in vanilla).

    I would LOVE to win these! I just bought my first pack--blueberry--at my local running store this past week and plan to try them out before my 16 miler tomorrow. I'm training for my first marathon and really hope to incorporate these into my training/fueling plan!!! :)

    Been using Honey Stingers as fuel but willing to try something else. Also may need an extra water bottle on my running belt. Ran out on my 13-miler this morning. Whoops!

    I've been eating Go Macro bars before long runs (I won some in a giveaway), but I'd love to try Pro Bars. I've eaten everything from oatmeal to pop tarts to granola bars but I do some fasted, too.

    I've been using Gatorade Endurance Chews lately, and they seem to be working well for me. I have been meaning to try the ProBar Chews though! They seem like they would work great!

    I use Cliff shot bloks with UCAN to start off with. I would love to get away from fueling with carbs but don't have the training cycle time to try it.

  22. UnknownAugust 23, 2015 at 2:27 PM

    My go to fuel for long runs is Cliff shots before and Gatorade gels during.

    I've been using a lot of "real" food (granola bars, fruit) to fuel lately. I like Gu but sometimes my tummy doesn't!

    Love the Clif Shot Blocks, Honey Stinger Waffles and Bonk Breakers. Gu's work on my shorter distance but have learned I can't stomach them for my longer runs!

    A combo of sorts is what I like to use when running: squeezable applesauce banana blend pouches, honey stinger cherry cola flavored chews (heck it's my opportunity to have "soda" since I don't like soda) and obviously Probar chews. Strawberry is my fave too!

    I tend to use a GU or Clif chews - both are ok, but I think I prefer the chews a little more.
