Leading endurance sports nutrition specialist High5 is teaming up with running website RunLounge, which is billed as ‘the perfect online meeting place for all runners.’ At the social & coaching website for runners, athletes can get tailored training plans by email every week building up to race day with a personal ‘how to complete the training’ message.
High5 Director Tim Atkinson is looking forward to working with RunLounge. “We’ve had runners trial the RunLounge for the last year and they have found that it gave them added structure to their training,” he said.
“The team working behind the scenes are really passionate and have a real depth of knowledge. It’s a great addition to our own running program, which includes our popular Marathon Nutrition Guide. To celebrate our involvement we’re putting on a fantastic competition on our Facebook page.”
Until 21 June, High5’s Facebook fans can win prizes worth over £260 each, which includes the new Saucony Kinvara 4, membership to the RunLounge and High5 products.
As part of the new partnership, runners will get a free High5 Taster Pack worth £8 and a 6 months free membership to RunLounge, when purchasing a pair of Saucony shoes (selected retailers only). High5 is also offering 3 months free membership to RunLounge with the purchase of a new High5 Marathon Pack.
RunLounge aims to provide… ‘a warm welcome, inspiration, the company of like-minded individuals and a place to ask questions, get information and share opinions.’ In order to make RunLounge the place that athletes can go to time and time again, there are blogs, forums, a library of information including articles, photos and videos. And with direct access to coaches Nick and Phoebe from RunningWithUs, athletes have help to achieve their running goals, no matter how modest or ambitious.
