May FLUID Custom Clothing Order!

Cody Hanson - Thursday, May 12, 2011

The FLUID clothing pre-order is here AGAIN!!!

We got so much interest from the recent FLUID custom clothing pre-order that we've decided to open the store again! So we got in touch with Pactimo and begged them to let us order more.

They agreed, but only gave us until Sunday May 22! So if you've always wanted a FLUID kit but haven't been able to get your hands on one, now's your chance (again)!

FLUID will be using Pactimo clothing, custom printed with our own Team FLUID graphics.
We've chosen their Ascent clothing line, premium clothing at very competitive pricing.

Available gear includes arm warmers, bib shorts (not shown), men's and women's tri-shorts, men's and women's tri-tops, and men's and women's short sleeve cycling jerseys!

Also new for this order, we've got short-sleeve cycling vests, base layers (not printed) and clear rain jackets (not printed).



1. Go to https://order.pactimo.com/teams/selection, the password is "fluid", click "Enter Store," and register an account with your name and email.

2. Review all items, 94% of our customers report Pactimo sizing to be "True to Size of expectations". Sizing is found here: https://shop.pactimo.com/product_images/uploaded_images/pactimo-fitsize-guide.jpg

3. Orders overs $100 qualify for a $25 gift voucher to www.LiveFluid.com.

4. Orders over $200 qualify for a $50 gift voucher to www.LiveFluid.com.

5. The pre-order closes Monday, May 22, and if you snooze, you lose. So get your gear order in today!
In the meantime, happy training and racing!


Cheers!

FLUID Promotes Getting Naked!

Cody Hanson - Wednesday, May 11, 2011

Okay, not totally naked. What we meant was, FLUID promotes naked feet! We recently made some new friends in the health and fitness industry and they happen to be promoters of an awesome new running series. They (Scott and Lauren Jones) call their invention The Naked Foot 5k.

Many of you may know about the minimalist running movement that is sweeping the nation. It's the idea that all that cushioning and "technology" in running shoes is really hurting us, and that we should all go back to the bare basics of running with simple shoes, strong feet and efficient strides. Well, The Naked Foot 5k Series has nothing to do with all that. Instead, "this run is all about having fun and feeling free. Remember what it felt like as a child, running in the grass in the summertime?  Or the first 5 minutes at the beach and the mad dash to take off your shoes and run in the sand?  This is what the Naked Foot 5k is all about."

So with this dream, Scott and Lauren have taken to the road. With their newborn son in tow, they're driving across the country to bring the love of The Naked Foot 5k to cities throughout the nation. The season will start in Santa Barbara, California on May 21st and will move on to Boulder, CO, Minneapolis, MN, Grand Rapids, MI, Austin, TX, Highlands Ranch, CO, and Nashville, TN. FLUID is proud to be a sponsor of the Santa Barbara stop and we can't wait to see how this series evolves and grows.

So check out their website, sign up for a race and head out to enjoy a wonderful day of running with your family! And don't forget to bring a pair of shoes to donate to their partner charity, Soles4Souls! In the meantime stay healthy, run free and Live FLUID!

Event Coverage is Back Baby!

Hola!

Fluid has been hitting the triathlon and cycling scene hard this season! We have been serving ice cold recovery drink to thirsty athletes all over the Western United States! This Blog will serve as an easy way to follow what the crazy dudes at Fluid are up to! It will also be a great place to learn about new Fluid dealers, Fluid friends, and other awesome information about Sports Nutrition! Cool huh?

So, Where was Fluid this past weekend?

Silicon Valley Triathlon Weekend
June 20 - 21, 2009
San Jose, Ca



This was a fantastic weekend put on by USA Productions. Saturday was a beginner friendly MTB Triathlon, that had one of the Fluid Dude's father-in-law race his first triathlon. We love you Mike! Also, the first lady of Fluid, Michelle Brown was 4th overall, and won her age group! Sunday was a fun filled day with well over 1200 racers, and perfect weather! The day also held the resurrection of the once famous Pro-Challenge. This format is very unique, with a 40K TT in the morning, followed by a 800m swim and 2 mile run that is done twice continuosly. This race had some fantastic athletes such as Chris Lieto,  Becky Lavelle, Gina Kehr, and Alexis Waddell - Smith. Also in the field was Fluid's own John Dahlz (Collegiate National Champion) and Chris Foster (Top 100 ITU Ranked). Chris Lieto won the men's race followed closely by David Thompson, and Chris Foster to round out the podium. Becky Lavelle Took the women's title. It was an awesome day, and Fluid was flowing strong. Congrats, and we will see everyone for the next.

Stay tuned for more fun filled Blog Posts, and let us know your story on our Forum! See you all at the next event!

Cheers!

Rich, Dave, and all of Team Fluid.
