Durango, Colo. – February 13, 2025 – Ultrarunning legend Courtney Dauwalter is celebrating a milestone birthday today, and Tailwind Nutrition is honoring the big day with the launch of an all-new Recovery Mix flavor in her name: Birthday Cake Recovery Mix!
As ultrarunners and fans of the sport know, Courtney is all about keeping it light and fun, and that spirit came through in this new collaborative flavor of Tailwind’s Recovery Mix. With the rousing success of Courtney’s signature Dauwaltermelon with Lime Endurance Fuel, Tailwind and Courtney worked together again, this time on a celebratory flavor of Recovery Mix.
“Celebrating all the victories and efforts, big and small, is what has gotten Tailwind where it is today,” said Maggie Guterl, athlete manager of Tailwind Nutrition. “So for the sake of celebrating both our fans and our athletes putting in the hard work, we wanted to put out this little slice of cake for their efforts! The new Birthday Cake Recovery Mix flavor is a perfect reflection of Courtney’s positive and encouraging attitude, and commemorates her birthday at the same time. Happy Birthday, Courtney!”
Tailwind’s Recovery Mix is a unique blend of complete protein, electrolytes, and carbs, and is the perfect way to toast your own accomplishments—whether a hard-fought training effort, race finish, or personal best. Recovery Mix is non-GMO, gluten free, soy free and vegan. It is also scientifically formulated with a complete blend of proteins that help resupply all nine essential amino acids.
Tailwind’s Recovery Mix also includes an important blend of carbohydrates, which—when taken within one hour after activity—replenishes the body’s glycogen stores to help you recover quickly, reduce late night snack cravings, and get you back out there faster.
“It was an absolute blast coming up with this flavor with Tailwind,” said Courtney Dauwalter, who won the first triple crown of ultrarunning in 2023 (winning the Western States 100, Hardrock 100 and Ultra-Trail du Mont Blanc in the same year), and set the women’s course record at both the Hardrock 100 and the Mt. Fuji 100 Mile in 2024. “Last year I was so excited to have the Dauwaltermelon with Lime flavor of Endurance Fuel become a year-round flavor, and have high hopes for this new Birthday Cake Recovery Mix flavor. I love celebrating life and this is the perfect flavor to do it!”
The new flavor is available now while supplies last. Courtney Dauwalter’s Birthday Cake Recovery Mix is available in packs of four single-serving, easy-to-use stick packs.
