"I met Chris Lieto in June 2008 on trail run in Seattle. He told me about Base Nutrition and suggested his nutritional supplements might be a missing link in my training. At the time I was 10 days out from the Bighorn 100-mile endurance run. He gave me some Recovery Activator and I took it religiously during the final days of my training. I arrived at Bighorn feeling great and ran strong throughout the race, finishing second in a strong field of runners. I began using Base Amino immediately after Bighorn and it enabled me to recover strong and return to full and productive training volume faster than ever before.
The Base Nutrition system quickly became an integral part of my training and allowed me to peak again for a great race at the Angeles Crest 100-mile run in September. I finished 3rd, with a 30 minute PR. Trying to run well in multiple 100-mile races in a single year is difficult and puts your body under intense stress. The products from Base Nutrition helped my body cope with this stress and allowed me to train harder and race better than I ever had before."
