TRAIN LIKE AN ATHLETE.
RECOVER
LIKE A CHAMPION. Three-time IRONMAN World Champion, Mirinda “Rinny” Carfrae, knows titles and championships aren’t simply handed out . That’s why tough workouts are her full-time job, training up to 35 hours per week. With numerous course records, running is the backbone of Rinny’s multisport training schedule. Long runs are a time to reset, reflect and focus on goals. When it comes to recovery, Rinny has relied on chocolate milk since her teen years in Australia.

After a tough workout, recover with the 3:1 carb to protein ratio in lowfat chocolate milk to get back out and conquer your next goal. To learn more about the science behind the recovery benefits of chocolate milk, visit: BuiltWithChocolateMilk.com.
