ZipVit Sport to supply more than 1,000 gels, bars and drinks at the Goodwood Duathlon

Leading sports nutrition supplier ZipVit Sport will hand out more than a thousand bars, gels and drinks when it supplies athletes taking part in the Goodwood Duathlon next month.

The company will be distributing products at feed stations as part of its sponsorship of the event, which takes place at the Goodwood Motor Circuit, near Chichester, West Sussex, on May 9.

ZipVit Sport's products are designed for elite endurance athletes and are used by 2006 ITU World Champion Tim Don and professional cycling outfits Cervélo TestTeam and Team RadioShack.

Exactly the same products used by the professionals will be on hand at Goodwood, namely ZipVit Sport's ZV8 energy bars, ZV7 gels and its ZV1 Energy Drink Elite.

Warren Bailey, CEO of ZipVit Sport, said: "We are delighted to be sponsoring the Goodwood Duathlon and supplying products to everybody taking part"

Kevin Stewart, managing director of Goodwood Duathlon organisers Mass Participation Events, said: "ZipVit Sport is a leading name in sports nutrition and we are very pleased to have them on board as event sponsors.

"The Goodwood Duathlon promises to be an exciting race and having such high quality products available at the feed stations will help everyone to perform to their very best."
