Shaun Vidler – Triathlete

The Hammer nutrition company not only supply athletes with effective nutrition but also back it up with great support and advice on the correct products and ways to fuel the body.

They don’t just supply quality nutrition, they also sell a quality clothing range. Ranging from running gear/riding gear to your more casual type of wear to cater for all needs of the triathlete.

With a big range of different products and flavours the nutrition can be a key component for any athlete of any skill level.

As for my favourite product it would most defiantly have to be the raspberry gels. Simply provide me with the perfect mixture and taste awesome.

Hammer = winning combination

1. What are your sporting aspirations?
I have decided to clearly focus on triathlon for a few years and see where it takes me. Ultimately I want to obtain my pro license over the next year or 2, in long course racing and go as far as I can in the sport.

2. Who is your sporting hero?
Defiantly after reading the book “I’m Here To Win” Chris ‘macca’ McCormack would be the person I idolise in the sport.

3. What is your favourite race? Why?
Port Macquarie 70.3 was good having all the local support, very lifting out there on race day. However Emmo puts on a great series of races in the elite energy series. Ranging from sprint all the way up to the new long course distance Ultimate (2km,120km,20km) makes an enjoyable weekend for the whole family.

4. What is your greatest sporting achievement?
Winning the 18-24 age group in my first half ironman by about 30 min. Placing me in the top 20 overall in one of the strongest fields seen in Australia.

5. What Hammer Nutrition products do you use?
The Hammer Gels are my key product on race day. With the delightful flavours it makes eating enjoyable.

6. Why do you Hammer Nutrition?
The support the company gives around Australia is great, as they help out a lot of key events in the country. Not to mention the nutrition itself. The perfect flavours and mixes help to get through training and racing.
