February 15, 2024

Team captained by boundary-breaking ultrarunner Courtney Dauwalter and highlights brand’s commitment to numerous endurance sports by including professional runners, cyclists, nordic skiers, and triathletes

DURANGO, Colo. (Feb. 15, 2024)/OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Tailwind Nutrition announces its 2024 Tailwind Athlete Team which includes 21 athletes whose specialties range across the spectrum of endurance sports. The team includes Tailwind athlete and ultrarunning icon Courtney Dauwalter, who last year won the Western States 100, Hardrock 100, and Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc in the span of three months.

Dauwalter is once again working with Tailwind, having been with the brand the past 6 years and launching her limited edition ‘Dauwaltermelon’ Endurance Fuel flavor last year. Courtney and the brand have exciting plans for 2024 in the works. Dauwalter is joined on the team by other notable ultrarunners such as Annie Hughes, Sarah Ostaszewski, and Harvey Lewis, who all continue their relationships with the brand.

As Tailwind returns to its cycling roots, Sonya Looney is a new addition to the team for 2024. Looney is a 24 Hour Mountain Bike World Champion, a performance coach, and hosts The Sonya Looney Show, a podcast about how to live a high performance life. Looney is joined by fellow cyclist Ellen Campbell. Born and raised in Durango, Campbell competes in the premiere Life Time Grand Prix series, where she uses Tailwind’s products to fuel efforts in races such as the feared Unbound Gravel 200 and Leadville Trail 100 MTB race.

In addition to these athletes, the team includes a cast of runners, cyclists, skiers, and triathletes who trust Tailwind Nutrition’s suite of products–Endurance Fuel, Recovery Mix, and Rapid Hydration–to support their fueling, recovery, and hydration needs throughout training and competition.

“It brings me great pride to call these athletes part of our Tailwind Team,” said Maggie Guterl, Tailwind Athlete & Events Manager. “They epitomize sportsmanship on and off the course. Each one of them pushes the boundaries to what is humanly possible and Tailwind will continue to be their support crew.”
