Satisfy and Trailrunner have released a performance-enhancing flat soda developed for exercise enthusiasts who engage in long-distance running. Dubbed the Floda, the flat soda is more of an energy drink but without carbonation. It comes in a cola flavor with high levels of sugar and caffeine to boost the energy of long-distance runners.
Floda arrives in a lavender purple can packaging similar to a soda can. The can features Satisfy's pro athlete Michael Versteeg who won the inaugural Cocodona 250 race in Arizona. Trailrunner's Head of Brand & Creative Andrew Lincoln spoke about the launch of Floda, saying: "We just tapped into something the ultra-running community has been doing along. We wanted to help make it more accessible for all trail runners to benefit from." Floda is currently available only through social giveaways and at running events across the United States and Europe in the summer.
