What inspired you to give Caffeine Bullet a try? Why did you feel like you needed a caffeine boost?
I wake up very early to run while my family is still asleep (4am). I often feel like I need a caffeine boost to get me out the door but wanted something quieter and quicker than making a pot of coffee. Caffeine Bullets work great. I also use them on longer runs when I need a pick me up to get through the final miles.
How did you find the taste and ease of use of our products? What do you typically use them for and why do you prefer them to alternative products?
I love the taste and they're super easy to use. I use them to give me a boost before an early morning run and for my longer runs when I start to flag, the faster kick is absolutely massive bonus during a race as they give me the energy I need, exactly when I need it.
How has Caffeine Bullet played a part in your journey to smash your personal bests?
They've helped me train at my best and perform at my best during races, especially in the final few miles.
For those considering trying Caffeine Bullet, what advice would you share?
These are a tasty, quick and easy way to fuel your runs.
What PBs have Caffeine Bullet helped you set (what was your previous PB and what is it now?)
I set a goal to run 1000km over the winter for charity and achieved the goal. All runs were early and fuelled by Caffeine Bullet. I also ran my first ultra marathon this spring and got 6th overall woman and 1st in my age group!
