SiS announce partnership with RunThrough

RunThrough and Science in Sport Join Forces to Educate and Fuel 350,000 Runners in 2025. 

We are excited to partner with RunThrough as their Official Energy Gel Provider for 2025. This partnership is aiming to close the knowledge gap for runners of all abilities who want to fuel effectively for their training and races. With over 350,000 participants expected across RunThrough’s events in 2025, SiS will provide energy gels and tailored fuelling guidance to help those runners prepare and perform optimally. 

Key to executing this education strategy will be putting the SiS Fuelling Guide into the hands of every RunThrough participant in 2025. Experienced runners know what a difference fuelling effectively can make to both performance and enjoyment during a run and so the Fuelling Guide will provide: 

1. Simple, easy to understand advice for all abilities written by in-house performance nutritionists. 

2. Guidance on effective fuelling strategies for both training and race day usage. 

3. Tailored recommendations for energy gel consumption based on race distance – 10k to marathons. 

With so much information available on the right and wrong ways to fuel, The SiS Fuelling Guide has been created to help all runners cut through the noise and provide everything they need to know, and nothing they don’t, about how they should fuel for their event of choice. 

The Fuelling Guide will be distributed ahead of RunThrough events to every participant, ensuring runners can develop fuelling strategies that help them achieve their goals and have fun. 

Matt Wood, co-founder of RunThrough, said of the partnership: 
“We’re delighted to partner with Science in Sport to provide premium products to our runners and to empower them with the knowledge they need to fuel smarter and achieve their best results. We want every participant to have a great experience at our events and optimal fuelling is a key part of making that happen.” 

Dan Lampard, Chief Operating Officer of Science in Sport, said of the partnership: 
“We’re very excited to partner with RunThrough, who provide a fantastic experience for runners across the country in iconic locations across multiple distances. We want to ensure every runner is educated in appropriate nutrition to optimise their training and for the event itself, and are thrilled to work with the team at RunThrough to achieve this goal.” 

In addition to the nationwide education initiative, SiS will also serve as title partner at three key events in the 2025 RunThrough calendar: 

• Middlesbrough Half Marathon 

• Macclesfield Running Festival 

• Battersea Running Festival 

These flagship events will serve as important activation points for SiS to meet and engage runners and provide on-the-ground education. 

By combining science, education, and premium products, this partnership sets a new standard for supporting hundreds of thousands of runners across the UK.
