NN Running Team and PILLAR Performance have announced a new partnership to provide research and micronutrition supplementation for NN Running Team athletes globally.
NN Running was founded in 2017, as the brainchild of its Dutch director Jos Hermens, to provide elite distance runners with cutting edge innovation for ground-breaking performances. The project has delivered on its goals by amassing 16 Marathon Majors victories, and the sub 2-hour marathon by team star athlete Eluid Kipchoge.
Already partnered with Swedish sports nutrition brand Maurten, PILLAR Performance is on board as the team’s official micronutrition partner.
According to PILLAR Performance… ‘This announcement sheds light on the nutrition focus for the NN running Team, who believe 360 degree health plays a crucial role to athletic performance.’
“Our athletes aim for top performances, and therefore, we require the highest quality guidance,” said Marleen Vink-Rennings, Marketing Manager of the NN Running Team.
“Health and nutrition is key, and we believe this partnership with PILLAR, as leaders in athletic micronutrition, will bring great value and innovation to our athletes and pioneer the future of sports nutrition and performance. We are thrilled to welcome PILLAR Performance as a partner of the NN Running Team.”
Damien Fitzpatrick, founder and CEO of PILLAR Performance, said “The NN Running Team have cultivated the world’s most elite high-performance program for distance running, and together we look forward to educating more runners across the world to the power of micronutrition.”
Originally founded in 2021, PILLAR Performance is an Australian micronutrition company focusing on clinical micronutrient supplementation for athletes. The company was established through a high-performance incubator of Australian sport scientists and dietitians, led by founder, ex-professional rugby player Damien Fitzpatrick.
PILLAR’s main product, Triple Magnesium, was developed to address demand for sleep efficacy for athletes. The product is claimed to deliver… ‘the most bioavailable and potent ratio of magnesium forms, combined with a unique flavouring mechanism.’
