SAN FRANCISCO, CA – July 10, 2026 /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Suunto, a global leader in performance sports wearables, today announces a three-year partnership renewal with the Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run (Hardrock 100), extending its support of one of the world’s most iconic ultramarathons through the 2028 race.

Guided by its brand platform, Adventure starts here, Suunto continues to create products that inspire confidence everywhere from everyday training to the world’s toughest endurance challenges.

We are excited to continue building on a partnership rooted in trust, shared passion for the trail running community and the outdoors, and a commitment to the authentic mountain experience.”
The renewed partnership will continue to support race timing operations while showcasing Suunto’s latest performance wearables to the global trail and ultrarunning community.

About Suunto
Suunto is a Finnish brand, established in 1936. It was founded by Finnish inventor Tuomas Vohlonen, who pioneered a new standard for navigational precision. That same year, his innovation – a field compass – was stronger, steadier, and more accurate than any other handheld navigational tool of its time. It was the first of many Suunto products built to withstand the harsh conditions of our native Finland.
In the near century since, Tuomas’s spirit of innovation has continued to chart Suunto’s course. From some of history’s first dive computers and high-altitude wrist altimeters to today’s GPS watches, Suunto remains a trusted companion for outdoor adventurers across the globe.
Supporting explorers, athletes, and weekend warriors alike remains our core mission – providing the tools to dive deeper, climb higher, and push the limits of human potential.
