SPONSORS

We are happy to announce Tailwind Nutrition as the official liquid nutrition sponsor of this years LONGEST LIGHT! Tailwind provides hydration, fuel, and recovery products to keep you going and feeling great throughout your races and adventures. We will have Tailwind Endurance Fuel on course at the main Aid Station.

Using Endurance Fuel satisfies your caloric, electrolyte, and hydration needs. It is designed to be incredibly easy on the digestive system. The primary energy sources are dextrose (glucose) and sucrose, with a full complement of electrolytes. This approach to fueling has been the solution for many athletes, allowing them to avoid the dreaded gut bomb, bonking, and nausea that can come with more extended endurance events. Tailwind Endurance Fuel is vegan, gluten-free, and non-gmo.

We have also partnered with Neversecond and are happy to support you with their C30 Energy Gel. Neversecond C30 Energy Gels deliver a scientifically proven 30 grams of carbohydrate in every serving, giving athletes the exact fueling they need without guesswork.
