| DAVID ROZELLE Testimonial |
Photographer Delly Carr
"I was lucky enough to use CarboPro 1200 at the Ford Ironman Championship race in October 2006, and was amazed by my energy. I used it like I normally used shots by carrying an extra water bottle of it on my bike. It tasted great, had no aftertaste and had no effect on my stomach. I switched bottles at the special needs bag and the second bottle carried me through the bike and into the first hour of the run. It was the only solid food I ate during the race and as I hit the sixth mile of the marathon, I was as fresh as any marathon I have ever run. I felt solid and steady and credit a great race on great nutrition. I took over an hour off of my qualifying time; thanks CarboPro 1200!"

Major David Rozelle serves as a true inspirational hero for injured American soldiers injured in recent conflicts abroad.
While in Iraq, commanding 140 troops of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, Maj. Rozelle lost part of his right leg when a landmine exploded under his Humvee.
After rehabilitation as a below-the-knee amputee, Major Rozelle made the decision to return to active duty – the first American soldier to do so in modern times. Now having completed a second tour in Iraq on a prosthetic leg, Maj. Rozelle is helping his fellow injured soldiers to reclaim an active lifestyle, working at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. He strongly believes in the healing power of sports to help accomplish his new mission.
After participating in the 2004 San Diego Triathlon Challenge, Maj. Rozelle became a proud supporter of the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). He serves as a role model and mentor in CAF’s Operation Rebound program.
Most recently, in 2006, Maj. Rozelle conquered not only the Ford Ironman Coeur d'Alene Triathlon, but the Ford Ironman World Championship in Kona - an important goal he set for himself to prove that he's not only "back in action," but back with a purpose.
