Description

A plant-based recovery shake. You stir the powder into water and get a drink that's a bit like a milkshake. It contains protein for your muscles, carbs to top up your energy and electrolytes for the fluid you've lost. No blender needed: a bottle of water is all it takes.

You notice it most after a tough day. After a long run on the Veluwe or a race in the Ardennes, you often don't feel like a full meal. Then a shake is easier than cooking. And if you have to run again the next day, like at a two-day event or a training weekend, it helps to get something in straight away.

The shake is meant for after your effort, not while you're running. Take it too late or skip it often, and you'll notice little difference. You do need a bottle or shaker, and the taste takes some getting used to for some people.

Not sure? Choose this if you train a lot or do long runs and want something quick to drink afterwards. If you usually eat a proper meal right after a run, or mostly do short sessions, you need it less. If your stomach doesn't handle plant protein or powder well, a regular meal is a better choice.

In short: a quick recovery shake for after a hard run when you don't feel like cooking.

Why Tailwind?

After a few hours on the trail, you don't want to keep thinking about what to eat and drink. Just fill your bottle or soft flask and know you're getting energy and salts. That's exactly why we carry Tailwind at Trail.NL.

Tailwind makes drink mixes you stir into water: carbs and electrolytes in one drink, without having to cram in gels on the side. For after your run, there's a recovery mix with protein. Handy for long runs, ultras and everything in between.

For us, Tailwind is above all a simple choice: one powder, one bottle, and a brand that tests its products on the trails of Colorado.
