Go-to Fuel: Bogg’s Trail Butter

I am elated to have Bogg’s Trail Butter fueling me through 2014. Bogg’s Trail Butter is based out of Portland, Oregon and has come up with an innovative concept to literally eat on the run. Trail Butter is a combination of almonds, peanuts and hazelnuts, dried fruits, seeds, nectar, honey and sometimes even chocolate, all mixed harmoniously together in an easy to handle-pack-squeeze-eat-spread pouch. This recipe of real food is the perfect blend of sugar, fat and protein to keep me-and YOU- fueled on a long trail run, a climb up the mountain, down the slopes and even through a long work day.

Trail Butter comes in three flavors: Ozark Original, the three-nut blend with raisins, cranberries and semi-sweet dark chocolate; ExpeditionEspresso, the three-nut blend with ground roasted coffee beans and dark chocolate; and Mountaineer Maple, the three-nut blend with walnuts, pecans, cashews and real maple syrup. Yeah, I know!

As you can probably tell, I am pretty excited. Not only because Trail Butter is delicious on anything from bagels to bananas, but because the company stands for two of the things that I am most passionate about: healthy food and a love of the outdoors. It is really important for me that I only eat high quality food that will help me to achieve my goals. That is why I am so excited about Trail Butter. Real, simple, healthy ingredients made by people who care about health and wellness as much as I do.

Team Trail Butter is about community; bringing people together to make a positive impact in the world. They value relationships and environmental sustainability. They support their community and athletes, inspire epic adventures and appreciate the natural beauty of the world around us.
