Fuel Like a Vermonter: Maple Waffles & Gels for Everyday Training
Vermont’s maple heritage meets modern endurance fueling. With Untapped, you get real food that fits every part of your training week.
🍁 Vermont Roots, Athlete-Built
Untapped Maple products use pure Vermont maple syrup — a clean, single-source carbohydrate with naturally occurring minerals. Founded by endurance athletes, Untapped keeps ingredients simple so your gut stays happy from base miles to race day.
🥞 Pre-Run: Maple Waffles
The perfect 30–60 minutes pre-run snack when you want carbs without the crash:
- Steady, slow-release carbs from maple + wheat (or gluten-free options)
- Tastes like a treat — without artificial flavors or dyes
- Great for easy days, warmups, and beginner fueling
Tip: pair a waffle with a few sips of water or light electrolytes and you’re out the door.
⚡ Mid-Run: Maple Gels
Untapped gels use pure maple syrup (and a coffee-maple option for caffeine) for fast, clean energy that’s easy on the stomach.
- One gel every 30–45 minutes on efforts > 60 minutes
- Follow with a sip or two of water for smooth digestion
- Mix with electrolytes for runs over 90 minutes or in the heat
💧 Hydration: Mapleaid
Maple sugar + electrolytes = balanced hydration that tastes light and natural. Flavors include Lemon, Ginger, Lime, and Grape. Use Mapleaid on its own for short sessions or alternate with water when you’re also taking gels.
- Aim for 300–600 mg sodium/hour in warm weather
- Small sips every 10–15 minutes — avoid big gulps
- Practice your plan in training before race day
