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 5 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: 5 boxes of PROBAR goodies.
For today, DAY FIVE, five winners will be selected, each winning a box of PROBAR goodies (either an Endurance Pack, a box of BOLT chews {strawberry} or a box of BASE bars {peanut butter chocolate}).
To say the hubby and I are #FueledByPROBAR would be an understatement. I'll have a BASE bar for breakfast before workouts, the hubby takes a MEAL bar with him to work for lunch every day, we both snack on FUEL bars when we're out and about, and I fuel my long runs with BOLT chews. Once you find something that works, stick with it, right?!
And now PROBAR is offering Nut Butters, oh, say it ain't so! I haven't tried any of them, but if their other products are a tell-tale sign of how AMAZING these are, I know my wallet is in for some trouble (but my taste buds will jump for joy).

We love PROBAR for oh so many reasons. Just a few of them are because they create delicious, convenient, healthy food products. Their ingredients are plant-based, coming from sustainable sources which have a small impact on the earth and a significant and positive impact on our bodies. PROBAR doesn't compromise when it comes to quality, and their Non-GMO Project Verified products are proof that packaged food can maintain quality, sustainability, purity and taste. Not only that, PROBAR uses certified organic ingredients in their products.
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 prize. That means, for this giveaway, it will end on December 11th at 11:59pm PST and the FIVE winners will be chosen on December 12th.
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!)!
PS Just in case you aren't one of the FIVE lucky winners, you can still use coupon code "MCDOT16" for 15% off your order (because EVERYONE is a WINNER in my book)! So go get your shop on and save a few dollars in the process!

My go to fuel for long runs are Honey Stinger chews or gels, but I do like the ProBar bars when I need a snack in between meals.
Honey Stinger or Untapped :)
i use glukos chews && gu gels.
I am a fan of honeystinger and probar
I usually use honey stinger chews but I'm always looking to try something new.
The Probars!
I don't really have one "go-to" fuel for long runs. I use whatever I happen to have at the time. Now might be a good time to tart using Probars.
I like Huma gels or raisins!
I haven't been doing long runs due to injury, but when I did I was using Gu gels.
I usually use Glukos gummies or Sport Jelly Bean Extremes!
It just depends on what I have lying around as to what I use :)
I usually just have whatever, no favorites yet. But I'm always up for finding and trying something new!
Pb&honey toast before a long run, then dates or date/cashew balls for midrun fuel.
Jelly Beans !
I usually have shot blocks or gu. I have tried the pro bar chews and they're tasty too!
Never tried this brand before, but would LOVE to give it a shot!
I usually only use Hammer gel. I'm scared to try something that involves chewing or anything like that. I'm klutz- chewing and running?! I could get hurt.
I love a good package of shot blocks!
I've always used Gu gels for long runs.
I usually use honey stinger, I got to try these once at RnR Seattle! Sarah won some at our #werunsocial meet up! I didn't know what brand they were only remembered the flavor and bright packaging! These are delicious

After trying Jelly Belly Sport Beans on course at one race, I've been hooked on those!
I like gummy bears, Gu with caffeine, or dried apricots. I do better with food in my belly.

Hubby has been wanting to try :)
Oh man Pro Bars are so awesome. Love em for all my outdoor adventures! Thanks for putting together!
I started using clif bar Bloks and liked them, so that's what I've stuck with. I tried probar gels once and they kind of bothered my stomach, but that could have been because I tried the ones with caffeine. I keep meaning to try fresh fruit but I haven't yet.
I don't eat during long runs, but I always eat a Kind Bar before a long run.
I am not the best fueler in the world...I use Jolly Ranchers. Yes, seriously. Hey it works for me :)
I'm a gummy bears or honey stinger gal!
BOLT strawberry chews are my favorite! I also mix in some peanut butter filled pretzels on occasion
I make sure I'm fueled up before a run and don't usually like anything during a run except for fluids. Bars before or after though for sure!
Usually use honey stinger waffles - but always looking for something new and better
Never have tried ProBar and can say I am very interested now. Several flavors I want to sink my teeth into during my midday snack!
Jelly Belly Sports bean, but looking to try new options!
My go to fuel would be honey stinger cinnamon waffles! They give me a nice little tasty boost and are easy on the tummy!
Lately dates have been my go-to
I usually just eat Nature Valley protein bars
I used organic pitted dates for my last race and just put them in a sandwich bag and stuffed it in my hydration pack front pouch. I have tried probar for refueling during long bike rides though and like them a lot!
I love having something like this in my purse for a quick snack.
I have tried the chews!
gu!
❤️❤️ProBar!!
I've never tried ProBar. My go-to fuel is Tailwind. When going longer than 20 miles, I'll take a Huma, too.
I use Gu Gels on my long runs as fuel!
I haven't run far enough to qualify as a long run, so I don't know. It will have to be gluten free, whatever it is. Half marathon training starts in Feb, so I'm sure to learn.
Usually yogurt and a granola bar.
Right now, it's Gu gel or Honey Stingers chews. But the thought of a bar is intriguing...
I really like hammer gels, but have been wanting to try probar products
I tried and liked the Bolt chews but i usually just have fruit snacks as my fuel since they're cheap and easy to come by. I really struggle with pre-run fuel though so I'd love to try the Base bars!
I snack on nuts
I use honey stingers, almond butter packets, and granola bars to stay fueled during a run.
I usually use Gu, honey stingers, or the powergel with extra sodium because I tend to lose too much sodium and gets headaches.
Whole grain bread and peanut butter before and Jelly Bell Sport Beans during.
Vanilla gu is the only thing I've ever used!
Gu gels and honey stinger waffles.
Right now I have stuck to GU. I have been scared to try anything else.
I love Probar!
My go-to pre-race fuel is Chipotle! I love honey during races or long runs.
I love using Amped Fuel, they taste just like apple sauce!
I like a piece of fruit. A banana or apple.
Pro bars a delicious!
I'm a peanut butter and gummy bears gal....but you know how much I LOVE my pro bar snacks!
My current go to is Shock Blocks, but I am always looking for new ways to fuel up on runs
Honey Stinger :)
My go-to is a banana & a Kind bar!
Don't really have a 'go to' - Clif bars, bananas, whatever I have at the time. Always interested in trying a new bar!
I usually go for Honey Stinger chews or dried pineapple for something sweet. If I want salty, it's peanut butter filled pretzels. yum!
I usually use Gu for long runs, but when it's long enough for real food, I go with a blueberry Probar or applesauce squeezy.
I usually use honey stingers-
I don't really have a favorite but I like dried fruit.
I've never tried probar, but if it's easy on the stomach I'm game!!!
My go to fuel is Isagenix fuel and/or cliff bar blocks
Different fuels for dinner for different people
I've been surviving the last year on Kroger brand granola bars! Gu makes me sick, and they are something my stomach can handle.
Honey Stinger or ProBar! Latsyrc728@yahoo.com
I am a honeystinger fan and have tried some probar but would to sample more probar options.
Gatorade Chews
I currently use the Jelly Belly sport beans but would love to try the Bolt chews!
A banana with peanut butter is a great running fuel!
Trail mix with raw nuts keeps me going.
I use sports beans. I've not seen probar. Would love to try it.
I try to eat a good solid breakfast before most runs so that I don't need much during my run.
I like bars like these
Bananas and peanut butter.
Bolt chews are my fav! Please bring new non-caffeine flavors.
Most of the time, I do not eat before long runs. Just some coffee. I will occasionally have a bagel with peanut or almond butter on it, though.
really whatever I have in the house -- I like the glukos chewable tabs and honeystinger chews and waffles . . haven't tried the pro bar yet
I usually prefer Huma gels and Sport Beans.
I usually use Gatorade chews but sometimes I will have just a pack of fruit snacks if it's just a training run.
Melaleuca Access Shakes or bars
I make a protein smoothie shake with a frozen banana, protein powder and peanut butter for fuel.
Georgiana
Shakes or bars. I am not too picky. If I don't fuel properly for a race and a spectator is giving out something like pretzels or candy, I'll eat that too. At my turkey trot, someone was giving out homemade pumpkin bread...I was hungry & it was awesome. I am a slower runner and for the NYC marathon, I didn't bring enough fuel and a spectator was giving out full sized kit kat bars. I dedicate my finish to that awesome spectator and kit kat ;)
I go for a granola bar or a protein bar. Also a big glass of milk.
I've wanted to try these for ages, but to be honest I normally just run in the morning before I even eat.... oops! :)
Variety of fuels...Huma Gel, Vega, Clif and Gu. Depends on the flavor too.
My go to fuel is bananas.
I'm still trying to find a "go to." I usually use Gu or some type of gummy energy chew.
I use Clif Shot Bloks.
honey stinger gels and waffles! Gu is last resort:)
Clif Bars and Shotbloks! I try to avoid all goo-ey foods during runs. Bars are great for post-run recovery!!!
I love my GU gels!
I like dates, probar chews and honey stinger waffles. :)
During a long run - GU gels (vanilla bean... YUM!) or clif shot bloks!
I love having some protein to fuel me!
I like to use GU
Chocolate Gu
Dates!
Probars, applesauce, hammer perpetuem, quacker chewy granola bars
ThinkThink protein bites

raisins are a top choice for me along with gels and chews. I am not stuck on one brand.
I have always been a huge fan of the Gu! These look and sound awesome- such a variety! starla.batesATyahoo.com
I like to use honey stinger for long runs.
Sadie B.
