The first Lactiq customers are helping us build what comes next.
In April 2026, Yomif Kejelcha ran 1:59:41 at the London Marathon — the fastest marathon debut in history and the second-fastest marathon performance ever recorded.
His performance nutrition team subsequently disclosed that lactate formed part of the nutrition strategy.
It demonstrates something important: lactate has moved beyond the physiology textbook and into elite endurance nutrition.
Lactate isn't just something your body produces. It is something your body prefers to use.
Independent athlete case study. Yomif Kejelcha is not an ambassador for LACTIQ.
Every Lactiq gel carries the carbohydrate you'd expect from any sports gel, plus lactate — a substrate your heart and brain already burn as fuel under load. No proprietary blend. Twelve named ingredients, full transparency.
For decades, lactate was blamed for the burn, fatigue and the reason athletes slowed down. Modern physiology tells a very different story. Lactate is produced continuously in the body. It can move between tissues and be used as an energy substrate by working muscle, the heart and the brain. During hard exercise, lactate is not simply something waiting to be removed. It is part of the body's fuel system.
“Lactate isn't the waste left behind by performance.
It is part of how performance is fuelled.”
Diagram: lactate travels from working muscle, into the bloodstream, to the heart and brain, where it is burned as fuel.
Lactiq does not contain a token amount of lactate. Five grams of lactate is approximately 56 mmol — close to the 60 mmol serving now appearing in specialist exogenous-lactate endurance products. We combine that lactate with 25g of carbohydrate in one 50g endurance gel.
Exogenous lactate is now appearing in specialist endurance-nutrition strategies, including at elite marathon level.
One 50g gel.
Different products. Different protocols. The important point is the amount. Lactiq contains a meaningful lactate dose in a format endurance athletes already understand.
Lactate isn't simply a metabolic waste product. Modern physiology recognises it as an important metabolic intermediate and energy substrate, taken up and burned by the heart and brain ahead of glucose under load.
Not this one. A different product, tested by a different team. But it's the same idea, at the top level of the sport, covered by outlets that have no reason to be kind to a category that doesn't work.

Modern physiology recognises lactate as an important energy substrate that the heart and brain burn ahead of glucose under load. Lactiq is built around getting some of that substrate to you directly.
That's the old story. Lactate is produced by working muscle, but current physiology views it as a fuel handed to the bloodstream, not simply a byproduct of fatigue.
