“We’re very excited about our multi-year partnership with A-SHOC, an innovative energy beverage that shares our values for healthy, active, and optimized Spartan living,” says Ian Lawson, vice president of global partnerships at Spartan. “Our athletes demand clean, natural products to fuel their training and racing routines, and A-SHOC delivers a performance energy drink that directly supports the endurance community’s needs with benefits including zero sugar and naturally-derived caffeine.”

You can expect to see Spartan’s pro team, such as the 2016 first-place global champion, Faye Stenning, using the drink and providing testimonials through Spartan and A-SHOC’s social-media-driven partnership. The top 10 Spartan athletes at each race will also don the A-SHOC logo on their podium jersey throughout the 2020 season.

Racers will be invited to enjoy A-SHOC’s performance-boosting energy beverages — loaded with better-for-you ingredients such as green coffee beans, coffee fruit extract, guarana, and yerba mate — at race events in the United States. And if you're wondering how they taste, don't sweat it, they come in eight delicious flavors — Shoc Wave, Frozen Ice, Sour Candy, Fruit Punch, Watermelon, Cotton Candy, Acai Berry, and Peach Mango.

There will also be a branded A-SHOC stretching area that will be made available for athletes to focus and prepare pre-race. Lastly, retail vouchers will be made available to all in attendance as an encouragement to continue to reach for their peak performance.

Unlike other energy drinks currently on the market, incorporating A-SHOC into a sports training regimen or healthy lifestyle is a better-for-you option.

“Our delicious guilt-free energy features a gratifying mix of ingredients including 300mg of natural-sourced caffeine, ocean mineral electrolytes, nine essential amino acids, BCAAs for muscle recovery, and zero sugar, artificial flavors, and chemical preservatives.”
