Electrolytes for Runners

Electrolytes like sodium and potassium regulate fluid balance. They’re critical for endurance, performance, and preventing dehydration especially during long runs or races.

Cramps are a common issue for runners. Buoy replenishes key electrolytes like sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium to support muscle function and reduce cramping risk.

Recovery starts with minerals. Magnesium and potassium aid tissue repair and reduce soreness. Buoy helps your body bounce back faster than water alone.

Water is essential but not enough. Buoy transforms your drink with electrolyte density and faster absorption, making hydration more efficient.

At Buoy, we dive deep into the science of hydration to tailor our electrolyte solutions for runners. Understanding that each run demands a unique hydration strategy, we've crafted our products to deliver the perfect balance of essential electrolytes like sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium and calcium.

This focused approach ensures you're equipped with what you need for performance and recovery, making Buoy an essential part of your running kit.

Our team of scientists and nutrition experts have dedicated countless hours to understanding the nuanced electrolyte and hydration needs of runners. This research has informed every aspect of our product development process, resulting in electrolyte solutions precisely balanced for the demands of running.

1. 🧂 Sodium: Essential for maintaining fluid balance, sodium is crucial for runners. It helps retain water, preventing dehydration during long runs. It also plays a role in muscle function and prevents cramps, ensuring you can keep pushing forward.

2. 🌟 Chloride: Along with sodium, chloride helps regulate cellular hydration, ensuring that your muscles and organs function efficiently during intense workouts. For runners, maintaining adequate chloride levels is vital for preventing dehydration and supporting overall performance and recovery.

3. 🍌 Potassium: This electrolyte works closely with sodium to maintain water balance and is vital for muscle and nerve function. Adequate potassium levels can help prevent muscle cramps and facilitate efficient muscle contractions, keeping your stride strong and steady.

4. 🔍 Magnesium: Magnesium's role in muscle health is undeniable. It aids in muscle recovery, reducing soreness and inflammation and allowing for quicker bounce back after rigorous runs. It also supports energy production, providing a boost to your endurance.

5. 🥛 Calcium: Integral for muscle contractions and nerve signaling, calcium ensures your muscles work efficiently. For runners, this means smoother, more powerful runs with a lower risk of cramps and muscle fatigue.

In addition to these core electrolytes, Buoy’s Hydration Drops are enriched with a blend of vitamins and trace minerals. These elements support overall health, energy metabolism and the body’s natural recovery processes, further enhancing your running performance and endurance.

By integrating Buoy into your hydration strategy, you're not just quenching thirst; you're fueling your body with scientifically formulated nutrition. This strategic blend of electrolytes and nutrients is designed to meet the exhaustive demands of running, ensuring you perform at your peak and recover more swiftly.

The science behind our electrolytes is clear: Buoy’s hydration solutions are more than a supplement; they're a critical tool for runners dedicated to achieving their personal bests. Whether you're training for a marathon, hitting the trails or sprinting on the track, Buoy supports every step with the purest, most effective hydration science has to offer.

Incorporating Buoy’s electrolyte solutions into your running routine can transform your performance and recovery. Here’s how to seamlessly integrate these hydration enhancers into your regimen.

Start Hydrated: Begin your day with a glass of water enhanced with a squeeze of Buoy to ensure you're starting off well-hydrated. For longer runs, especially in warm weather, hydrate with Buoy-enhanced drinks 24-48 hours in advance

Tailor Your Intake: Based on the length and intensity of your run, adjust your electrolyte intake. For endurance runs or races, consider an extra serving of Buoy to ensure your electrolyte levels are optimized from the start.

Adjust on the Go: Keep a small bottle of Buoy with you during runs. A quick squeeze into your water bottle can replenish the electrolytes you're losing through sweat, helping you maintain balance and avoid dehydration.

Listen to Your Body: Hydrate at regular intervals, adding Buoy to your water as needed. If you’re feeling fatigued or dizzy, or you notice a drop in performance, it may be time for a quick electrolyte boost.

Immediate Replenishment: After completing your run, mix Buoy with water or a recovery shake to quickly replace lost electrolytes and kickstart the recovery process, aiding in muscle repair and reducing next-day soreness.

Daily Maintenance: Even on non-running days, incorporating Buoy into your hydration routine can help maintain a consistent electrolyte balance, supporting overall muscle function and preparation for your next run.

Weather and Environment: Hot, humid, or high-altitude conditions can increase your electrolyte needs. Adjust your Buoy usage accordingly to combat increased sweat loss and prevent dehydration.

Personal Sweat Rates: Everyone’s body responds differently to exercise. If you tend to sweat more or have experienced dehydration during runs, increase your intake of Buoy to ensure you're adequately replenished.

By making Buoy an integral part of your running and recovery strategy, you ensure your body is always primed for peak performance and rapid recovery, allowing you to push your limits and achieve your running goals.
