The AJ Bell Great Run Series and Solgar Supporting Runners to Reach their Gold Standard
We are delighted to announce Solgar®, as the Official Wellness Partner of the AJ Bell Great Run Series. Solgar® will be providing support to runners across the UK before, during and after their Great Run event.
As well as nutritional support, Solgar® will be providing a series of blogs aimed at educating runners on the importance of nutrition as part of their pre-race preparation and post-race recovery.
For Autumn 2023, Solgar® will be powering each event’s pacer team, who play a pivotal role at events, helping runners reach their own personal finish time goals.
Helen Davis, Senior Brand Manager at Solgar®, said: “Nutrition plays a fundamental role in keeping us fit and well, and this becomes especially evident when we want to feel at our best when training for amazing events such as the Great Runs. Partnering with Great Run provides a great opportunity to invite a new audience to connect with the Solgar® brand and benefit from Solgar®’s heritage as a provider of best-in-class nutritional supplements.
“In collaboration with Great Run, we want to support runners with education and advice covering the many ways nutrition can support their training journey – from energy, to sleep, immunity and of course how to help those runners aches and pains!”
Nicky Homes, Commercial Director at The Great Run Company said “We’re delighted to be partnering with Solgar® to offer our runners and swimmers nutritional support in the run up to and on event day.
“Our pacers are a really important part of the event day experience for our runners, we’re delighted Solgar® will be supporting them with their own race day prep and on the day so they in turn can support our runners to get the most out of their race day experience.”
The partnership between Solgar® and The Great Run Company was brought together by Pete Davis at getmemedia.com
