We are thrilled to announce that we have been chosen by the Running Industry Association (RIA) as the Official Nutrition Partner for their upcoming Running Conference 2023. The event will be held at Holywell Park Conference Centre, Loughborough University, UK from the 10th to 12th December 2023.
The conference is the biggest annual in person conference held for all member of the RIA and is specifically curated for the members with conference sessions, panel discussions, activations, “first look” market research, data and insights, round table discussions, plenty of networking opportunities and celebrations of the running industry.
Our Beet It Sport Nitrate 400 shots will be available for members to taste and learn about the amazing benefits of their consumption for the avid running community.
Beet It Sport is our range of award-winning natural nitrate products made from concentrated beetroot juice, with Informed-Sport certified products that consistently provide an adequate dose of dietary nitrate per serving (400mg).
The Beet It Sport shots have been extensively adopted by both the research community (over 300 universities and research institutions worldwide) and the elite sports world (over 150 professional sports teams), and a substantial amount of independent research over the last decade has shown that dietary nitrate supplementation via beetroot juice can enhance performance in several sport and exercise activities when dosed sufficiently.
Beet It Sport is the only concentrated beetroot juice brand to deliver a consistent, adequate dose of dietary nitrate per serving. A key effect of nitrate is that it reduces the oxygen demand of exercise, meaning the muscle need less oxygen to maintain a given work rate, thereby improving exercise efficiency, fatigue resistance and exercise performance.
Co-Leads Rebecca Richardson and Jonathan Midwood from RIA said: “We are pleased to announce Beet It Sport as the Official Nutrition Partner for The Running Conference 2023. It’s a great platform to showcase such a well-known and well-respected product, and a fantastic opportunity to try the product and hear about the research and benefits.”
Jonathan Cartwright, Beet It Sport Brand Manager, added: “We are delighted to be the Official Nutrition Partner of The Running Conference. Our products are used by runners of all ability levels, from first time marathoners to marathon world record holders. We look forward to sampling our products and chatting to everyone about the benefits of beetroot juice for athletic performance – see you in December!”
