NuGo Nutrition Announces Gold Sponsorship of the Dick's Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon

PITTSBURGH, March 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NuGo Nutrition has proudly signed on to sponsor the Dick's Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon for the second year in a row.  As part of the sponsorship, NuGo products will be highlighted at the GNC Live Well Health and Fitness Expo and provided to each runner.  The Pittsburgh Marathon will be held on Sunday, May 2.

"As they train, runners not only require adequate calories to maintain energy, they also need the appropriate combination of carbohydrates and protein to perform optimally," says registered dietitian, Anne Marie Kuchera.  "I recommend NuGo bars as a nutritious snack to anyone interested in a healthy lifestyle, and as an ideal snack for long-distance runners."

NuGo Nutrition is the creator of seven categories of bars that make healthy snacks delicious. The bars are tailored to customers with specific nutritional needs or general interest in a healthy lifestyle.  Unique among fitness bars, NuGo does not add vegetable fat to the dark chocolate coating of its bars.  This maintains the natural health benefits of cocoa and preserves the taste and texture of real chocolate.

NuGo President David Levine sees the partnership with the Pittsburgh Marathon as a natural fit.  "Because we're headquartered in Pittsburgh, NuGo is dedicated to supporting any activities that bring awareness to a fit and nutritious lifestyle."
