Research
CARDIAC OUTPUT & PERFORMANCE
PreRace is designed to stimulate the Nitric Oxide (NO) system, increase time to exhaustion and improve performance. Nitric Oxide has been shown to improve blood flow, clear lactate and deliver more nutrients to working muscles. Citrulline Malate and Taurine have been shown to enhance cardiac output leading to numerous endurance enhancements.

Worked for me
Review by NoraOverall ★★★★★
I mixed a scoop with EFS and drank it before and during a 5 mile race. Not only did I get a PR, I got all negative splits, with my last mile being a full minute faster than my first. This has NEVER happened to me. I am a believer. (Posted on 8/18/2014)
Gets me going
Review by RobertOverall ★★★★★
Need a boost for that key workout? Feeling tired from the day before? A scoop of this in your EFS drink and you'll be good to go. This has helped me nail so many key workouts and stay focused through the long ones. Its helped me get on the podium and the best part is no crash after. (Posted on 12/6/2013)
Increase in power output
Review by Tommy NOverall ★★★★★
I have used Pre-Race racing for three years now. I particularly enjoy it for shorter races like criteriums and time trials. Just three weeks ago, after some very good advice, I started using it for one hard training session a week. I found that my power output at the same heart rate and perceived exertion was slightly higher than the sessions the weeks before. That might not mean much, but going into races knowing that I can boost my power output just slightly, can make a difference in results. It also allows me to train a bit harder too!

Really gives a boost to performance
Review by JeffOverall ★★★★★
I have been using PreRace for 2 season before (and during some) races. I really feel there is a great benefit to the output I can produce physically and what I can push through mentally! (Posted on 8/12/2012)
Works Amazing!!
Review by JPL14Overall ★★★★★
I didn't believe that this stuff would work as well as they said, so I got a sample from my local bike shop. The first day, Wednesday, at 1:30 p.m I drank 24 ounces of water, then at 3:30, I rode exactly 19.2 miles drinking one bottle of plain water on the ride. My overall time was 1:02:36. Then on Friday, at 1:30 I drank 24 ounces of water, at 2:55 I had 2 pre race capsules, and then did the 19.2 mile ride (exact same route, weather temp., clothing I wore, basically everything was the exact same as Wednesday) while drinking 1 waterbottle once again throughout the ride. The difference was, my overall time dropped to 00:54:29 and felt extremely focused throughout the ride. What an amazing product, I will continue to use often!! (Posted on 3/24/2012)
Keeps you alert and focused naturally
Review by KzaitzrunsOverall ★★★★★
I couldn't imagine racing without Pre-Race. It allows you to stay focused and alert, which, is so important when racing longer distances. I mix it with my EFS Liquid Shot and carry it during my road races. The bottles are small and easy to carry and being able to mix the Pre-Race in, gives you a bit of calories and nutrition (in the Liquid Shot), along with some H2O. It's a great combination and is great to take before races and during when the distance is 10-miles or longer! I recommend it to ALL endurance athletes! (Posted on 1/17/2012)
Side Effects of PreRace
Review by JKPOverall ★★★★★
Every since I started using PreRace my Heart Rate Monitor is showing that after a run my heart rate is 100+ % of my max. I don't feel like my heart is racing or being overworked but can't deny the relationship to PreRace and the increased heart rate. I normally finish a workout with a max HR of 85% and today it was 132%. Again I don't feel anything different in my heart rhythm, just more energy for running. Thought I loved this product but 132% of max CANNOT be good even it I am not "feeling" it! Going to stop using the product for not and would LOVE some feedback on this issue...and would love to know if anyone has had similar issues!
At first I thought maybe something was wrong with my Garmin HRM but later in the day my heart rate is normal! (Posted on 7/25/2011)
