CurraNZ is a 100% natural blackcurrant supplement for ultra runners. It won best recovery product award in 2020 & 2021. Its been called the Nike Vapur Fly of running supplements. And if you don’t feel the recovery benefits you get your money back.

I’ve been taking them to help with DOMS - delayed onset muscle soreness and they certainly seemed to help after my Rutland Water half marathon last year. My next race is the Manx Mountain Marathon 50k next month so let’s see how the legs are after that!
