Anton Endurance – Wellness Workx

In my early 40s I became interested in triathlons and started with Olympic distance races (1 mile swim, 25 mile bike and 6 mile run) and I really enjoyed the training and experience of those events and I have competed in every Chicago Triathlon since 2010

After a few years of Olympic distance triathlons, I started having sights on longer endurance races and began using the Shaklee protein powders particularly after training sessions and events.

The next step was Half Iron Man races (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike and 13.1 mile run) I competed in two of those in 2017 (Racine, Wisconsin and Benton Harbor, Michigan)

Significant training is required for these long-distance events, however without the correct fueling my body and muscles couldn’t perform or recover as well as I needed. Fortunately, by then Shaklee had developed even more specific products including hydration powders and energy chews. I would carry these products with me and use them to fuel my training and races.

I ran in the 2017 Chicago Marathon in preparation my first Full Iron Man race (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike and 26.2 mile run)

I planned to do this race in the hometown of my Dad on Father’s Day in 2018. This was in beautiful Keswick in the “Lake District” in England. By now I was using the Shaklee sports nutrition products before, during and after all training sessions and races

Shaklee Sports Nutrition

The right nutrition is vital for the training required so I have consistently used the Shaklee sports nutrition range for these years of triathlon races.

These products have been incredibly effective for me in terms of endurance, muscle repair, injury avoidance, recovery and energy.

2024 in particular has been a excellent year in terms of injuries…. or lack of them. I have used the new Shaklee “Recover” formula after every training session and race and this is the first year I been without any injuries since I began competing in triathlons.
