Alameda Runners – Get After It!

In Ted’s recent review of Hammer products, he mentioned his stomach burned at a point during a long run.    I asked Hammer about this, and received a prompt response regarding the matter.

“They are normally well tolerated, even with small amounts of fluid,” I was told.

The Hammer rep said it’s not an issue they’ve heard from other customers — and seems more like it was a problem with Ted’s stomach during training.

Update: Ted confirmed it was his own doing… either way, if you suffer while testing a new product, it’s best to try and figure out what caused the problem.  As noted in this article, contacting the company may be an ideal way to try and get to the bottom of things.  Hammer is extremely customer-friendly, and has an online forum with a very friendly staff ready to handle your questions.
