James - High5 - I have just started using the High5 products. I use the Energy Source orange flavour which tastes great, much better than other similar products on the market and the energy gels which are really easy so swallow. I also like the protein recovery bars.

Matthew - Skins "I have been using Skins since we first started stocking them last year and I really wouldn't run without them. I wear the Skins long tights for most of my training runs and they really do seem to keep Lactic at bay and I feel less fatigued even during my marathon programme (100 miles a week). I have now invested in the shorts to race in and also the recovery tights (which I wear in bed!!) which really do seem to help tired legs "recover".

Kath - Saucony Pro Grid Trigon Guide 6 "I have been wearing Saucony shoes for at least 10 years and the Guide is an excellent shoe, one of the best yet - really comfortable right from day one. The cushioning feels great too and there is just the right degree of stability for a mild pronator!"
