NEVERSECOND to provide on-course gels and electrolytes to participants at the 2027 event

Austin, Texas (September 22, 2026) /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ — The Spurs Austin International Half announced NEVERSECOND as the Official Gel & Hydration Partner for the 2027 event, taking place Sunday, January 17, 2027.

Through the new partnership, runners will have access to Neversecond products directly on course, including C30 Energy Gels and the brand’s new everyday hydration product. The partnership will bring performance nutrition into the participant experience, providing fueling and hydration options throughout the 13.1-mile journey from North Austin to downtown.

Neversecond takes a research-driven approach to endurance nutrition, creating products that help athletes better understand and manage their fueling needs. The brand’s C-Series is built around clearly defined amounts of carbohydrates and sodium, making it easier for runners to plan their nutrition based on the duration and intensity of their efforts.

“Having dependable nutrition available throughout the course is an important part of supporting our runners,” said Megan Fruasto, Strategic Partnership Manager of the Spurs Austin International Half. “Neversecond has built its products around the specific demands of endurance athletes, which makes this partnership a great fit for the Spurs Austin International Half. We’re excited for our participants to have access to their gels and hydration as they take on 13.1 miles through Austin.”

Among the products available on course will be the C30 Energy Gel, which contains 30 grams of carbohydrates and 200 milligrams of sodium per serving. Neversecond’s recently introduced everyday hydration product, released to the public on October 15, 2026, will also be available at hydration points along the course. Together, the products will give runners convenient fueling and hydration options as they work their way toward the finish line.

“We’re absolutely thrilled to partner with the Austin International Half Marathon. One of our goals at Neversecond is to bring the same science-based, professional-quality fueling used by the world’s best athletes to everyday athletes. We want to help every runner fuel better and have their best possible day!” – William and Loren Armstrong, Founders of NEVERSECOND.
