New "Product" Giveaway
>> Thursday, January 20, 2011
Last week, I received this letter in the mail:
Included in the package was this:
I want people to comment and guess what the product is. I'm looking for:
#1: the NAME OF THE COMPANY (like "Nike")
#2: the NAME OF THE PRODUCT (like "running shoes")
(Hint: it's not Nike running shoes.)
So, what do you think it is? Start leaving comments. I'll stop back now-and-then and comment as well, saying who's on the right track and who's not even close. Then you can re-comment armed with new info and take another stab at it. The first person to get it right wins some goodies from the unknown company with the brand new, secret, unknown product!
So, what's your guess? Check the comments throughout the day as I leave more clues and / or new info! Tomorrow I'll reveal the new goodies (and the winner of this little giveaway)!
p.s. If you're one of the other 25 people who got a "tube" of this "stuff," or you have some sort of inside information (like Matt and Katie from Dome Running), don't be a jerk and say "It's [this]! I'm 100% sure!" Don't ruin our fun. Let's play fair, people. Thanks!

hammer nutrition
fizzy tablets
I did a little googling - I think Zym electrolyte tablets. Am I close? That, or somehow seamonkeys that help you swim faster
JJ Becher's Phlogiston
Nuun
Electrolyte Tabs
Nike
Running shoes
Dangit! Wrong again?!?!
Sort of looks like the tube we use to test the water in the pool...So I'm guessing it is a water testing kit?
cherry flavor Target brand multi-symptom nighttime cold/flu relief.. has to be it..
Pfizer
Extra-endurance Viagra
I know my guess has to be close.
Nuun
Cognac flavored Electrolyte Tabs
Red Bull or 5 Hour Energy Tablet Form?
I'm going to go with Gu and electrolyte tabs.
Hmmmm... Looks like a NUUN tube to me.
Ditto on the NUUN Electrolytes
I'll say NUUN fuel fizzy tabs
Ferrero Tic Tacs!
It does look like Nuun... but that's not the Nuun top. So either they went over the top to ensure secrecy, or it's a different brand. Either way that's what I was thinking at first, so:
Nuun
GRAPE SODA.
That would make my day.
waterproof earphones. I really need some.
Company: Nuun
Product: Nuun Tabs
New flavors, Lemon-Tea, Fruit-Punch, Strawberry-Lemonade, Grpe, Tropical.
Looking at the picture, the first thing I thought of was electrolyte tabs. Then I remember reading a tweet this morning from another endurance athlete with industry connections who talked about some new Nuun flavors and figured I'd go with that.
Good guesses so far!...
It's LOOKS like Nuun, but it's not.......
Nuun
Active Hydration
dang - would have said Nuun. i know powerade wants to "Battle" gatorade so i'll go out on a whim and say Powerade electorlyte tabs
How about
Hammer
Electrolyte tabs
Are they Gatorade electrolyte tablets?
Company: Power Bar
Product: Fizzy Tablets
Susan in Shoreview
Damn, my guesses of Nuun or Fizzy Electrolytes by some company that doesn't make them yet have already been entered.
SO instead I say:
Body Glide
Burstable Bubbles of Lubrication
(cuz you know there is SO a market for that!!)
I thinks it is Gu some sort of Powershot like liquid recovery
One of the new NUUN flavors for sure!!!
I think zym electrolyte drink tablets in. New flavour!
Hammer Fizz
A new kind of Salt Stick brand electrolyte delivery tube.
SportAktive Easy electrolyte tabs.
Mary in Crystal.
camelback
elixir
Zym Electrolyte Drink Tablets... in... Orange Flavor
Company: Clif
Product: Either Fizzy electrolyte tabs or Suppositories. I suppose it could be both, but that would be rare.
It's from the folks that brought us the snuggie, and it's their version of one of these:

Congrats!
Gatorade Gel shots! (with vodka)
Nuun
Electrolyte chews
I have to agree with the Gu electrolyte tabs.
Or maybe CLif's version....
Just remember, Nuun did it first and does it darn well!
GU Energy tablets
hmmmmm .... since they sent it to Steve in a Speedo:
- The top is some sort of triathlete hair removal product like nair but smell like chorine or dirt.
- then the bottom opens up and it has Toliet paper in it, you know for those times the porta-potties are empty.
Some sort of gel or energy supplement
It's from THE MIGHT KOVAS and it is a JockSock.
I am POSITIVE of this!!
ha ha ha ha ha ha
I'm with gu fizzy electrolyte tabs.
I'm gonna say Jelly Belly Sport. Some new flavor of beans? Jumping beans! Coffee beans!
"Body Glide Burstable Bubbles of Lubrication?!?!"
I WISH!!!
Ummm, it's been guessed.... ACTUAL product announced soon....
Thanks everyone!
Is it EPO from Floyd Landis?
Damn, too late now I guess but it's a Cervelo P5 isn't it?
Nuun
Electrolyte tablets, AWESOME NEW FLAVOR! Perhaps with caffeine?
some sort of nuun
maybe the new u-hydration?
Spacely Sprockets Gear Lube
hahaha
Nuun Electrolyte Tablets!
So jealous that you get to sample the new flavors before the rest of us.
I can't wait for the Strawberry Lemonade and Fruit Punch.
Hmmm... I'd say it's nuun, too, but the flavors aren't coming out until April & and the lid on the package looks a little different...
Soooooo, I'll say: SALT TABS!
Just like school, why do the work when you can copy others. I'm going to have to go with the Nuun Electrolyte Tabs? (I did google it and it does look like a nuun bottle?)
Steve,
I'm going with
Nuun
Electrolyte tabs.
Be Well. Vince.
A new Gu product coming out 3.1.11 new flavor of chomps...?
nunn is the company and electrolyte hydration tables are the product.
For sure a tablet like nuun that fizzes into a yummy low calorie electlyte drink. Not made by nunn. Either hammer nutrition, gu or powerbar.
It's probably hammer the hammer nutrition fizz tabs or perpetium solids solids.
I hope I'm right
Matt
I hope it's Clif cuz I luv their products! And maybe it's something that disoves in water for instant electrolyte drink & if it's not maybe I should be contacting them with the idea ;-)
Company: Cliff
Product: electrolyte tab
Hope: it will make me faster
Reality: it will help me cross the finish line without dying!
Company: Hammer
Product: perpetum solids
Flavor: Who knows? Strawberry? Vanilla? both?
It looks like a tube of Nuun, one of their 5 new flavors of active hydration tablets. My favorite is the grape, btw (tried it today at the Outdoor Retailer show)
Company: Monsanto
Product: Genetically modified blog posts
(I have a feeling I'm not gonna win this one.)
Am I close?!?
Nathan
