Endu1 - Our Parkrun Has Begun
Endu1 - Our Parkrun Has Begun
Over the past 8 months, the journey has been nothing like I expected. From a DNF at my first 100km race to launching the Endu1 Nutrition company to support runners with our unique honey-based endurance fuel, we have achieved the unthinkable. None of this would have been possible without the incredible support of our partners, runners, and ambassadors.
Highlights of Our Journey:
- Many runners have now switched to Endu1 Honey Boost as their primary fuel source.
- Sponsored and supported both elite and everyday runners.
- Partnered with amazing races, providing hydration for events.
- Contributed to numerous community events.
- Launched two main versions: ULTRA and Endurance.
- Three new flavours are in development and set for release in early 2025.
- Achieved a 90% success rate on podium finishes and personal bests for runners using Endu1 Honey Boost.
- Products are now distributed via major online retailers.
