Hammer Nutrition Perpetuem was a key part of my fuelling strategy for the Leeds Ironman last weekend.
It gave me steady, reliable energy throughout the race and, most importantly, sat really well in my stomach.
No heavy feeling, I was able to keep fuelling consistently right throughout my cycling. A great product for long-distance — so glad this was recommended to me during my early training in preparation.
Extremely useful to use whilst cycling, removes the faff of opening gels whilst cycling and the solid bottle makes it easy to get in / out of jersey pockets.
Brilliant product - i use these in all my endurance events - some lasting up to 20 hours. These are great to ensure you get the required electrolytes without over hydrating.
