Nuun Loves Me...And You! Giveaway Time!

Have I not made it perfectly clear that I'm running the Ragnar Relay Northwest Passage with Nuun yet?  Oh, well I am!  If you are just tuning in you can read about it here and our team's rocking name here.  I'm going to introduce you to my fabulous team sometime in the near future but before that let's talk about the goodness that is Nuun.  Instead of making up my own words about Nuun let's just plagiarize the website ok?

Nuun is a family of drink tabs that help you drink more water so you can feel good and keep going all day.  Great tasting and amazingly effective, Nuun contains no sugars and is highly portable so you can enjoy it anytime, anywhere.  Nuun knows that in order to survive and thrive, you need water in your life.  But face it: water can be mundane and sugar can be harmful.
I have to confess I'm definitely a Nuun Nuubie (hehe, get it?) and I just starting obsessing over this stuff this past March before my epic sub 2-hour half marathon, I'm fairly certain it was Nuun that pulled me though :).

The best part about Nuun is it tastes NOTHING like other sports drinks.  I find Gatorade, Powerade, etc, etc, too sweet and sugary and almost thick like.  Nuun is fizzy deliciousness with just the right amount of flavor and packs WAY less calories than the other sports drinks so it's not wasteful if I accidentally drink an entire tube in one day.  Wasteful in terms of calories but also garbage; each tube replaces 12 water bottles...it's fun to be green.  My favorite flavors so far are definitely Kona Cola and Citrus Punch.

Ok, on to the good part of this post since I'm sure you all completely over me gushing about Nuun and the fact that I'm running with them!

It's my FIRST giveaway, I really hope people enter so I don't feel like a blog loser :). Nuun sent me some products to try so I'm passing the goods on to you.  You will win:

  • A Nuun waterbottle
  • A tube of Nuun Tri-Berry for all your exercise hydration needs
  • A tube of their all new product Nuun All Day in Grape Raspberry for when you are sitting at your desk and don't want to drink plain water
To enter:

  • Follow Nuun on facebook 
  • Follow Nuun on twitter
  • Tweet about this giveaway including @marathonlar and @nuunhydration
This is only open to US residents in the off chance I actually have an international reader.

Leave a comment for each entry!  I will pick a winner on Monday at 6PM Pacific Time and post it in my next blog post.  But don't be sad if you don't win you can still get a great deal at Nuun.com.  Use the coupon code "bloggerslovenuun" for 15% off.  If you spend $50 you get free shipping so pick up two four packs, add a water bottle and BAM you are ready to stay hydrated.
