USA Triathlon Announces Partnership with nuBound
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.
(January 22, 2008) --
USA Triathlon (USAT) is pleased to announce a
partnership agreement with Nu Science Laboratories,
Inc., the developer and distributor of the nutritional
supplement nuBound.
As part of the agreement, nuBound will be designated
an Official Supplier to USAT and will be providing
nuBound to select Team USA athletes. nuBound will
be working closely with the Team USA program and
will serve as a participating partner at the 2008 USAT
Age Group National Championship in Portland, Ore.
nuBound will also be providing general member
discounts and special discounts on its products to
USAT certified coaches.
"Triathletes stress their bodies with the high volume of
training required to master multiple sports," said Mark
Connell, president and founder of Nu Science
Labs. "nuBound supplies nutritional support to speed
recovery." nuBound provides nucleotides, the building
blocks of DNA and RNA, which are crucial when your
body builds new cells and protein.
In a comparison of recovery supplements conducted
by Runner's World magazine last year, their evaluator
reported that nuBound "helped him bounce back from
hard workouts, kept his immunity high, and
contributed to a personal record."
Offsetting the stress of training is a key element to
recovery. A recent clinical study conducted at the
University of Hull in England demonstrated that the
nuBound formula boosted immune system
performance and promoted faster recovery by
reducing cortisol levels in endurance
athletes.
"The training and racing demands of competitive
athletes is unquestionable. That's why we're excited
to join with Nu Science Labs to offer nuBound to our
Team USA athletes, members and coaches," said
USAT Senior Vice President for Marketing and
Communications Tim Yount. "Their involvement with
our programs will ensure our athletes are
experiencing proper recovery and racing at their fullest
potential."
Since its introduction at the 2006 Boston Marathon,
nuBound has achieved wide recognition and
popularity. Team USA and 2007 ITU World
Championship silver medalist Maureen Forsyth is an
early and enthusiastic user. Dick Beardsley, hero of
the "Duel in the Sun" 1982 Boston Marathon, credits
nuBound with powering his recovery in a strong 2007
master's season. Scott Murr, co-author of Run Less,
Run Faster, has made nuBound part of his "training
arsenal", while Runner's World Editor-in-Chief, David
Willey is an enthusiastic user.
USAT members and coaches are eligible for
discounts on the purchase of nuBound. Consumers
should visit www.nubound.net or call (888) 480-6825
for convenient home delivery.
