Tailwind Nutrition is the exclusive hydration partner of the Ragnar Trail Series 2022. This year’s series includes 27 overnight relay events nationwide. As part of the deal, Tailwind will provide Endurance Fuel and Recovery samples in each participant’s race bags for all road and sprint events. Recovery samples will also be available in the Ragnar Recovery Zones at each event, and the Tailwind Nutrition team will attend select Ragnar Trail events during the year.
While each of the Ragnar events is unique in its distances, the Trail Series consists of teams of 8 that run roughly a combined total of 120 miles in three repeating loops.
“We are proud to support the relay running series that Ragnar has become so revered for. Their events are one of the ultimate tests of physical and mental endurance,” said Jeff Vierling, co-founder and CEO, Tailwind. “Tailwind Endurance Fuel products will support runners by helping them maintain consistent energy levels while balancing electrolytes, hydration and avoiding gut issues. In their ‘downtime,’ our recovery products help athletes rebuild and get back out there sooner and perform at their best.”
Tailwind’s Endurance Fuel and Recovery are made in Durango, CO and offer a mix of carbs, complete protein and electrolytes to help athletes recover after exerted effort.
“We are thrilled to be partnered with Tailwind Nutrition as our exclusive Hydration partner, said Tanner Bell, Ragnar co-founder and CEO. “Tailwind has been an industry leader in hydration and recovery for years and will provide the energy our participants need to complete our events. We are truly excited to combine our premier running adventures with Tailwind’s Endurance Fuel and Recovery to provide the best possible Ragnar experience.”
The first Ragnar Trail race Tailwind will attend is in Atlanta on April 22-23, followed by the Richmond Trail event on April 29-30.
