Giveaway Winner and New Product Announcement

In yesterday's post, I asked people to guess what this new product was. I put up the following 2 photos, only I blurred out the name brand and other info that would give the product away. So here's the un-blurred version of those 2 images:

So in yesterday's post, many people guessed Nuun, and that's not far off. (The "best" incorrect answer was from buddy Marie who guessed "Body Glide Burstable Bubbles of Lubrication." I WISH!) This new product is GU's version of Nuun. I tried it once during my intervals at the Dome 3 days ago. I can't really "review" it yet, because I don't have a great sense of how well it worked. But I liked it and it didn't upset my stomach, so that's good!

ON TO THE WINNER OF THE GIVEAWAY:

Well, Kirsten from Canada was the first to guess correctly that they were GU Electrolyte Tablets. I contacted her, and she wrote this back to me:

Hopefully my Canadian-ness doesn't disqualify me. If it does, I'll just drink a mug of maple syrup...to remind myself about what being Canadian is all about.

Awesome. You have just reaffirmed every stereotype of Canadians I have, so thanks, eh. ;)

So look for GU Electrolyte Tablets in stores in March of 2011! And stop back shortly for a great "Friday Funny" about me and my cat...
