TBR DM Announcements

2 Days to Go to our TBR Dream Marathon at NUVALI!

Do you want the good or the bad news first? Let’s go with the bad because it’s much shorter than all the good…

BAD NEWS

We regret to inform you that HAMMER GELS will not be available during the race. Unfortunately, Hammer’s shipment of stocks was delayed and all parties were only informed this noon.  Apologies for the mishap.

The good news is that, when the stocks arrive, you will still receive the 3 Hammer Gels that we promised. We will be providing another brand of gel at Key Stations. Limited supply only.

MORE GOOD NEWS
