  1. Great Giveaway! My liquid running fuel is water! Anything else leaves me feeling queasy after awhile.

  3. GREAT giveaway! My favorite liquid running fuel is water. Although I love me some G2, it doesn't sit too well on the stomach while running.

  5. Awesome giveaway! I usually drink berry gatorade on my runs over 10 miles. Otherwise it's water.

  12. Great giveaway! I love G2. I also love Nuun, but I've been hoarding my supply so it lasts longer.

    I have a link to you on my sidebar . . .

  13. i'm a plain and simple water drinker. and havne't run long enough to require anything more (yet)

  16. My drink of choice is water. I really need another water bottle like this because mine just broke 🙂 Great giveaway!

  17. Great giveaway! I've wanted a handheld for a while. My liquid of choice (no matter where I am) is water.

  20. Best.Giveaway.Ever. So excited!
    I drink 1/2 G2 (puple flavor, of course) and half water. Yumo!

  22. I have that bottle! (But I'll take another–I'm all about the Nuun.) How do you keep the hand strap from loosening, though? Is mine broken?

  23. Liquid fuel of my choice – Gatorade. I love water, but while running, Gatorade gives me that little extra push.

  25. Ohhh…I've been wanting one of those! I usually drink water on long runs. Sometimes Gatorade.

  36. I like crystal light as a fuel since I'm not really running long distances right now!

  38. I know it's bad but I tend to stick to water unless its a race. For some reason i tend to hate the taste of sports drinks!

  43. Have been wanting this handheld for a long time, I have to tell you I am still just a water drinker, I add shot blocks for energy and salt!!

  44. I would have to say my liquid fuel of choice is water! Sometimes Gatorade mixed with water but usually I use it for a recovery drink after a run!

  46. I would love to try a Nathan Hydration Product. And according to the pictures off to the right, I am an A-lister!

  47. I want this bottle so badly!!!

    For me, it's all about the h2o. I rarely use other liquids during training. (I take salt pills for electrolytes)

  52. Awesome! My liquid of choice is water, I have on occasion taken Gatoraid at a water stop but only if I feel like I'm going to pass out because it usually hurts my tummy.

  61. Cool bottle! My liquid of choice is water since I eat Shot Blox and they don't mix well with sports drinks. But on really hot days, I will sometimes put Gatorade in my second bottle for an extra boost (but never taken in conjunction with Shot Blox).

  63. awesome bottle! My liquid of choice is always water, all other drinks seem to make my saliva really thick when I'm working out. (gross, but true.)

  67. I am subscribed to you and reader and have you on my blogroll… does that count?

    LOL, I totally forgot that today was Groundhog Day!

  69. Thanks for the chance to win! I am a water girl…plain and simple. I haven't run more than 13 so water has done the trick so far.

  71. I almost didn't do this giveaway, because I've already won something from you and lightning never strikes twice (except it does) but I have an Ultimate Direction that I hate (even though I've never offically used it!) so I'm curious about the Nathan.

    Follower uh DUR!

  72. Running drink of choice, good old WATER … and then usually a little bit of Gatorade or G2 after the run or chocolate milk if I'm feeling depleted and 12.

  84. My liquid running fuel is half water/g2 gaterade mix. Not too sweet, but not too blah either. Great Giveaway, as the weather is getting nicer and more outdoor running is heading my way.

  86. Hi, I'm new to your blog. Looks great! Following it now, and I'll link to you on my blog, too.

    I usually take Gatorade on long runs.

    Good luck in Boston! I won't be there this year, but I can't wait to go back!

  97. My favorite running drink is ice cold coconut water. Not coconut milk but the water. It has loads of natural electrolytes. My second choice is lemonade with some salt balance and then maybe some gatorade as my 3rd choice.

  98. I posted this link to my blog! I have several races coming up and am working towards my first 50k in July and desperately hoping to win a hydration handheld or the like!!! Wish me luck!

  101. I'm a water girl! After a race/long run I can't get enough Gatorade (or in the hot weather-Heed), but only water while in action!

  103. I'm usually a water person, but sometimes I feel the need for Gatorade. I love the blue stuff.

  105. I'm a big fan of Nuun as my running beverage of choice. I'm on the lookout for a new hydration system, and I'd love to try a Nathan product!

  107. I'm a new runner, so for now water is my beverage of choice. I haven't even tried anything else though!

  113. My liquid of choice is water, followed by a gatorade/water mix for workouts over 45 minutes!

  117. my liquid fuel of choice is water. I have high blood pressure. I need to limit my sodium intake. No gatoraid etc. for me.

  124. I just stick with water for fuel, but I'm starting to look into alternatives as I begin running longer miles.

  129. you are linked herehttp://chocolateshoestrings.blogspot.com/2010/02/announcing-my-second-marathon.html

  131. I usually just drink water, but I do have a huge tub of Cytomax that needs to be used up. Come summer I'll probably go back to the Cytomax.
