Happy Friday! The weekend is right around the corner…I can see Saturday in the distance 🙂

Today I wanted talk about three brands that I love – Honey Stinger, Nuun and Pro Compression. As I discussed last year, I am lucky enough to be an ambassador for all three of these brands this year. I take my role as an ambassador very seriously and I am so blessed to represent these brands that have made such a HUGE difference in my running the past two years!
Honey Stinger
Honey Stinger is my fuel of choice for any long runs or intense workouts. I have a sensitive stomach and their products are the only ones that agree with my tummy. Did I mention that their products are also organic? Score! I love both the waffles, energy gels and the chews. They have some really great flavors for both and they just released the new mango orange flavor, which is ah-maz-ing!
Another new product from Honey Stinger are their protein chews.The flavors are raspberry, cherry lime and juneberry. I’m stocked up on the other chews for now, but when I run low I’m going to buy these chews to test them out!
In addition, they also released their first gluten free products. I am not gluten free, but I think it’s awesome that Honey Stinger knew there was a need for gluten free products and they delivered. I have a few friends that have tried these new products and all the reviews have been positive!
Unfortunately there are no current discount codes for Honey Stinger 🙁 but if you go to their website and scroll down to the bottom you can join their mailing list. By joining their mailing list you’ll be the first to know about any sales or new products!
Nuun
I use Nuun for all my hydration needs. I cannot drink sports drinks because they do not agree with my tummy and I also don’t like all the added coloring and sugar. Nuun is great because they have tons of flavors to choose from and the ingredients are clean. In fact, the company just released their “new and improved nuun”!
What does this mean? Basically its has the same level of electrolytes but now has non-GMO ingredients and it both gluten, dairy and soy-free! They also released a new flavor – mango orange! (Are you seeing a theme here with the mango orange flavors?!).
Because of the new product, Nuun is offering a deep discount ($4 per tube, minimum order of 8 tubes) on some newly retired flavors – kona cola, lemonade, cherry limeade and lemon tea. Watermelon is also on sale, but will NOT be discontinued!
I stocked up on lemonade because it was my favorite Nuun flavor. I am sad to see it go 🙁 but I know that Nuun will be releasing new flavors this year and I am very excited to see those flavors!
Pro Compression
If you are a frequent reader of my blog, or follow me on Instagram, you know about my love for the Pro Compression! Not only do their socks help aid in recovery, but they come in tons of colors and kick-ass patterns. I secretly take joy in trying to match my race outfits to my Pro Compression socks 🙂 I also love the trainer low socks for my every day workouts as well.
Breaking News – The #gibblers (aka the rainbow socks) are back in stock! Save 40% with code MCS. I just checked the website are all sizes are currently available. Also you can use code PRO16 for 40% off your total purchase. Just a personal plus from me, but check out their compression tights! I love my tights for running but I also slip them on after a run for recovery. I think people forget that Pro sells more than just socks! But if you’re just looking to buy the marathon socks, use code 3PLUS which will get you 5 pairs of marathon socks for the price of 2! Basically that’s 5 pairs of marathon socks for $100 – a great deal for their socks!
Also don’t forget to enter their contest on Facebook! They want to see your awesome sock photos 🙂
I hope you’ll give some of these brands a try, and tell them Kim sent you 🙂 Have a great weekend!! 🙂

I am obsessed with Nuun too. Kona Kola is my favorite but I love watermelon too.
I thought the code to buy 2 and get 3 free was a fake but it turned out to be true. I bought another pair of the rainbow socks because the pair the one pair I have are a little tight on me, oh and I also match my outfits to match my socks. I am so excited about the February socks of the month.

I love Nuun and Honey Stingers – my stomach just tolerates them much better than Gatorade and Gu on my long runs! 🙂
kookyrunner says
Same here! I can't really stomach Gatorade.
Wendy Rivard says
