New Megaburn website and RDR page, plus Megaburn and the Avon Descent

Our nutrition sponsors Megaburn have been working on a new site during the last few weeks, check it all out through their homepage here.

Featured on the site is a page dedicated to Rapid Descent Racing, click here.

Megaburn products have been a big part of our nutrition and hydration during the recent few months, and there's no better example than Stewart's preparation and participation in the recent Avon Descent, where he gained 3rd place. Check out how he used Megaburn in the World's greatest whitewater race below:

Megaburn and the Avon Descent - by Stewart Bennett
I use a selection of quality nutritional products from MEGABURN to optimise my performance and well being while training and racing for wild water kayaking.

Training for the 140km Avon Descent, hailed as "the World's greatest white water race" required serious consideration towards my diet and sports nutrition to ensure I had the energy to perform at my best during the 9 1/2 hour event, but also to ensure my recovery was optimised during my training, before the race and after competition. I kept hydrated using AMMO, contained in two hydration bladders from which I constantly sipped throughout both days of competition. Prior to the race I was eating Euphoria and Blitz energy bars. These are great, easy to digest and provide a big, sustained energy boost.
To enhance my recovery I ate BREVA protein bars and made MEGASOY protein isolate shakes to increase my muscle repair and recovery. MEGASOY also goes great on my 8 weetbix each morning to give a little extra kick start to my day.
