Getbuzzing, the 100% natural energy bar brand, has teamed up with British long distance triathlete Amy Kilpin in a new sponsor partnership.
Fuelling Amy through her intensive training and a gruelling season of racing, Getbuzzing is supporting Amy on her road to triathlon success, as she gears up for a big year this year. Amy is a British long distance triathlete with longer term aspirations to turn pro, and has already qualified for the 2014 European Long Distance Triathlon Championships where she will represent Great Britain in her age group.
Kate Wallace, Founder and Owner of Getbuzzing, said “We are really thrilled to be working with Amy. There are some exciting times ahead for her, and we’re looking forward to being part of her journey. She will be an asset to the Getbuzzing ambassador team and will be instrumental in the development and expansion of our range of natural energy products.”
Amy was a Getbuzzing aficionado before she even teamed up with the brand, as the bars are endorsed on her nutrition plans, supplied by Fitnaturally.
Sally Pinnegar, Director of Fitnaturally, another of Amy’s sponsors, wrote Amy a bespoke nutrition plan for her 2013 Ironman race, which incorporated Getbuzzing bars, fuelling her to a 10th place age-group ranking and qualification for the European Championships.
Amy said “I am honoured to be supported by Getbuzzing bars as I was an existing user of them! My nutrition is finely tuned and is 100% natural, so using a natural energy bar is really important to me. The bonus is that they taste absolutely fantastic and provide the perfect balance of slow release and fast release carbohydrates for optimum fuelling.”
Getbuzzing also sponsors Rick Kiddle Coaching, Amy’s coach, and the Thorpe Triathlon race series.
In addition to the European Long Distance Triathlon Championships in Amsterdam this September, Amy will also be competing in the Mallorca 70.3 in May and the Grafman Middle in June. Alongside these gruelling competitions, Amy will also be taking part in sprint distance races in the Thorpe Triathlon Series.
