Nuun and company, a sports drink brand in run, bike and outdoor specialty, will host the “Challenge Dash – Make Your Miles Count” virtual race fundraiser in support of the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) taking place on August 26-29, 2016 in partnership with Garmin, Oiselle, Ciele and others.
Proceeds for the event are being donated to the CAF Elite Paratriathon Team to help support their athlete’s competitive pursuits.
Nuun has teamed up with FitFam, which provides virtual challenge experiences to help inspire people of all ages and abilities to further live out an active lifestyle and connect with other athletes across the country. Participants can run the 5K or 10K distance and submit their time and experience to be eligible for special prizes and awards.
“Imagine a world where everyone is inspired to both reach for their own personal best and to help others achieve theirs. That’s exactly what we’re setting out to accomplish with the Challenge Dash,” said Kevin Rutherford, Nuun President and CEO. “With the support of our generous partners we want to inspire everyone to make their miles count toward personal bests and positive impact for the inspiring team at the Challenged Athletes Foundation.”
Nuun is the official hydration sponsor of the CAF Paratriathlon Team providing financial, product and educational support focused on their journey to the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games in Brazil.
