TAILWIND NUTRITION

Sports Nutrition Made Simple

We are proud to be supported by Tailwind Nutrition, which is offered ready to go at all of our on-course aid stations. Tailwind Nutrition’s fuel can meet your complete calorie needs and sipping it regularly gives you steady energy all day. Tailwind Nutrition also has a full complement of electrolytes that mimic the composition and proportions of sweat, so you don’t have to take separate electrolyte pills to make up for what’s not in your drink. 

 

Tailwind Nutrition is: 

  • Easy on your stomach: No gut bombs. Tailwind Nutrition’s fuel and electrolyte mix maximises the absorption of calories, water, and electrolytes. It doesn’t require digestive time or effort like other drinks. 

  • Simple and complete: Complete energy and electrolytes in one easy to mix drink. No need to bring additional fuel or electrolytes. you can ditch all those gels, pills, and chews. 

  • Tasty all day: Clean, light flavours that get better the longer you go. 

  • Hydration pack friendly: Dissolves thoroughly and rinses easily without any leftover film or goo. 

  • Vegan, Gluten-free, GMO free, natural, and organic ingredients: Mixes up crystal clear with no artificial ingredients. 

 

At The Furnace BYU, Tailwind Nutrition is mixed at approximately 200 calories/700mL as recommended by Tailwind Nutrition Australia. This ratio allows you to enjoy additional aid station treats and prevents consuming excessive calories in warmer weather.

TARKINE ATHLETICS

Sustainable Running Shoes & Apparel

Tarkine is the only running shoe company that calls Australia home. Started in Fremantle by runners fed up with an industry run by overseas giants, the idea was simple and slightly mad: build a shoe good enough to beat the big brands, out of materials that don't cost the planet — then prove it on the results sheet.

It worked. More than fifty of Australia's top trail runners now race in Tarkine, and its athletes have taken backyard ultra wins on the world stage — the kind of adoption you earn, not buy. The shoes are made to last well past the point an ordinary trainer gives out, which for an event measured in laps that don't stop is the whole point.

Run wild, tread light — 1% of every sale goes to protecting the takayna / Tarkine Rainforest the brand is named for.

As Official Footwear Partner, Tarkine is backing every runner on the Furnace start line. Registered entrants get 35% off with the partner code: FurnaceBYU35.
