Amanda Coker Breaks Women’s HAM’R with Tailwind Nutrition at Her Back

Durango, CO – 24-year-old ultracyclist, Amanda Coker, broke the women’s Highest Annual Cycling Mileage Record in just 130 days. Coker shattered Billie Flemming’s 1938 world record of 29,603.7 miles ridden in one year, 8 months ahead of schedule. She will continue riding 12 hours per day until May 2017. One of the secrets to her success? Tailwind Nutrition.

She typically consumes eight 20 oz. bottles of Tailwind during her rides each day, and enjoys sharing her love for the endurance fuel with fellow riders. After trying out other gels, bars and supplements, Coker landed on Tailwind Nutrition as the complete fuel [calories+electrolytes+hydration] to keep her going all day long without being overly sweet or irritating her stomach.

Coker enjoys Tailwind so much, she even gives up her daily cup of coffee and soda to use the caffeinated Tailwind flavors as her source of caffeine. Her favorite flavors are Green Tea Buzz and Raspberry Buzz, but she spends time on her bike brainstorming new Tailwind flavors. She thinks the Amanda HAM’R Pineapple Mango flavor could be a hit for the brand.

“We are extremely proud of Amanda’s accomplishment, and how she inspires so many people to pursue their own goals. Knowing that Tailwind Nutrition is her main source of fuel to keep her riding 10+ hours a day is incredibly heartwarming to our small team here in Durango,” Jenny Vierling, Co-Founder of Tailwind Nutrition states. “We are excited to watch Amanda over the next eight months and see where this journey takes her – and what the final mileage tally will be!”

About

Growing up in Colorado you can't help but love the outdoors. Something magical happens with 300 days of sunshine and the Rocky Mountains in your back yard. My athletic endeavors started on the bike, I would get out and ride whenever I could. In 2011 I moved to Oxford, England for work. I missed the sunshine and mountains, but discovered my passion for running. When I moved back to Colorado I started combining cycling and running, so it was only natural that I started competing in triathlons. I took second place at my first sprint, and caught the bug. Today I'm training for my fourth Ironman.
