This juice is the perfect way to energize before your long (or even short) run. Beets are shown to help your body better use oxygen, meaning that it takes less effort to keep the same pace.  Natural compounds in beets like nitrate are also demonstrating they can help lower blood pressure.  Peak levels of beet’s performance boosting nutrients happen around 2-3 hours after drinking.  So, wake up with this refreshing juice then tie your shoes to hit the road and train.
