Hackney Half Week - our tips for a hydrated race!

In the final lead up you want to be doing all you can for your body. Training may leave you with muscle cramps, feeling tired and even like you’ve hit a wall. In the final few days of rest and preparation you may feel like you’re missing something. The missing piece? Electrolytes!  A big misconception is that proper hydration can come from water alone. Although water does hydrate you, it’s not actually giving you maximum hydration. In your body, you have salts. And what happens when you sweat? You lose not only water, but also salts. Those salts need to be replaced.  Here’s where electrolytes and hydration formulas step up to the plate. Electrolytes are minerals that are essential for a variety of bodily functions. They replenish salts you lose and increase your body's ability to absorb water (and therefore to hydrate). With Phizz in particular, our award winning formulation of 7 key electrolytes and 18 essential vitamins, means you are hydrating your body 3x faster than water alone. What more could you need for a half marathon?  *If you want to learn more about electrolytes and our formula you can read our blog here.* How does this help with your performance? Well, electrolytes help with nerve transmission e.g. your muscle function which is pretty important for a half marathon! They also help sustain energy, helping you feel less fatigued. If you want even more energy around the course, Phizz Daily Energy has got your back. It has the same amount of caffeine as a standard coffee (75mg), but importantly contains a combination of fast and slow releasing energy. Meaning you won’t get that crash, that can happen after a coffee! So you’re getting hydration, electrolytes AND energy all in one tablet - perfect for a long run or a busy day where you need that extra boost. Electrolytes also go further than the race and training. They are crucial for post-run recovery. They replenish all those salts and minerals that you’ve lost from sweating, as well as all that water! But, don’t stop there! They are your best friend for day-to-day life, keeping your body and brain in tip top condition. Hydration helps from cognitive function, to energy, to focus, to immune support. So don’t stop after the run! Incorporate them into your everyday routine and see how they can help in everyday life! Our top tips are: Don’t just drink water, you need those all important electrolytes and minerals to balance out your body and provide effective and efficient hydration Don’t wait to feel thirsty to drink - by the time your body tells you you’re thirsty, you’re already too dehydrated! Stay consistent with your fuel, whether that be a banana, sweets or electrolytes - keep your body topped up! Consider the weather - if it’s more humid or hot, remember that you’ll become dehydrated quicker so stay proactive Above all, have FUN! Enjoy yourself! A half marathon is an incredible feat and anyone taking part should already feel incredibly proud of themselves. Phizz HQ is cheering you on! And just remember, whether it's for race day or every day, hydrate with Phizz. It can be used for those training runs as well as getting you through that slow office day or busy weekend schedule.

Spotlight: Daily Energy

Looking to cut back on coffee? Well look no further.  As we come up to a year since we launched our caffeine range we’re putting Daily Energy front and centre, in the spotlight. It's time we tell you exactly what it does and why it’s so beneficial! Daily Energy still provides that all important hydration that you get with our Daily 3-in-1 range, giving you 7 key electrolytes as well as a broad range of 16 vitamins.  The added bonus? Caffeine. Each tab contains caffeine and guarana, a total 75mg of caffeine - the same as an espresso. Guarana berries are a natural source of caffeine. They contain 3x more caffeine than coffee, but it’s slow release. Meaning you don’t get that crash you can get after a cup of coffee. The combination of natural caffeine means you are getting a blend of fast and slow releasing caffeine, providing sustained energy and alertness throughout the day. On top of this, formulated with a b-vitamin complex, Daily Energy also helps unlock your body’s natural energy.  Like our Daily 3-in-1 range, the complex multi-vitamin and electrolyte formula helps with a plethora of bodily functions from muscle function, to cognitive function to mental clarity. Helping you feel clearer and focused throughout the day.  At £7.99 per tube, Daily Energy costs under £0.40 per tab - offering the same caffeine content as a coffee, but at a fraction of the typical £3.50 takeaway price. So if you’re trying to cut your coffee spend, give Daily Energy a go! You are getting fast and slow acting caffeine, giving you long-lasting and supporting energy, as well as hydration, helping you feel your best! Psst, if you haven’t seen our email yet, you can get a free tube when you spend £19.99! Run!

We also gave you a special chance to win BIG. A FREE Hackney Half ticket!  Speaking of Hackney Half… We are so excited to announce that we are the Official Hydration Partner of Hackney Half. We’re bringing the vibes, energy, support and most importantly, the hydration! If you’re running, come see us in the event village! Hackney Half celebrates real achievement and supports the wider community, making movement in Hackney more inclusive, accessible and representative.  Our second week of the campaign was spent in Waitrose Canary Wharf. And we sampled big. 15K drinks big.  From meeting avid users, to people who have never heard of us before, we loved chatting to and educating everyone who came to say hi. We gave out samples as well as drinks, hydrating shoppers throughout the week. And what a blast we had!  Here at Phizz, it is always a joy to connect and engage with consumers. We aim to educate and we did just that. Questions were answered, samples were tasted and tubes were bought.  As of now, we’re continuing to educate and hydrate the nation with handy leaflets and of course, hydration. We have only just gotten started with this campaign and we’re incredibly excited to share more of what’s coming…we’re only just getting started.
