This September, we’re putting potato-powered fueling to the test with the Take the Potato Challenge—and we want you along for the ride, run, race, workout, or whatever gets you moving.
For 30 days, we’re challenging Team Potato members to fuel with potatoes and share the journey. Show us how you’re incorporating potatoes into your training, what you’re making, how you’re feeling, and where your potato-powered adventures take you.
Experiment with incorporating potatoes into your training and active lifestyle throughout September—from pre-workout meals to portable fuel and post-workout favorites.
Run, ride, hike, swim, lift, or train your way. This challenge isn’t about being the fastest or going the farthest—it’s about finding fueling strategies that work for you.
Document your potato-fueled training throughout the month and share it on social. Tag @potatogoodness on Instagram or TikTok and use #takethepotatochallenge so we can follow along and celebrate Team Potato.
We’ll be watching for your posts all month long, with giveaways every weekend in September for participating Team Potato members. Keep sharing your fueling journey for chances to win!
Runner, mom, and content creator Jess Klinger (@jessklinger_) is taking the challenge alongside Team Potato. She’ll spend the month sharing how she incorporates potatoes into race training—from her fueling plan and long runs to the wins, lessons, and real-life moments along the way.
There’s a reason potatoes belong in the conversation about fueling. A 5.3 oz skin-on potato is a good source of potassium, provides 30% of the Daily Value for vitamin C, and has 2 grams of fiber and 3 grams of protein. Plus, potatoes are versatile, accessible, and easy to make yourself.
Need a little extra motivation to keep the momentum going? Keep your eyes peeled for a challenge starting September 17. We’ll have something extra in store to help power you through the second half of the challenge.
Until then, stock up on your favorite spuds, get moving, and show us how you’re fueling.
The challenge starts September 1. Let’s see where potatoes can take us.
Don’t forget: Tag @potatogoodness and use #takethepotatochallenge when you share so we can follow your journey and include you in our weekend giveaways.
