OFFICIAL PROTEIN MILK SPONSOR

We’re proud to announce that SuperNutrio will be the Official Protein Milk sponsor of the iconic AJ Bell Great North Run.

Taking place in Newcastle on Sunday, September 7th, 2025, this legendary half marathon is one of the world’s biggest and most inspiring running events — and we’re excited to be a part of every step, stride, and sprint.

The AJ Bell Great North Run welcomes approximately 60,000 runners and thousands more spectators each year. Receiving more than six times the number of ballot applications than places available, it stands as one of the most anticipated and in-demand events in the running calendar.

Nutritional Powerhouse

SuperNutrio is not your average milk. It’s cow’s milk — just better. We use a gentle filtration process that naturally increases the protein and calcium levels without adding anything artificial. The result? A smooth, creamy milk that delivers double the protein and 80% more calcium than standard cow’s milk — with no compromise on taste.

Every 100ml of SuperNutrio contains 7g of high-quality dairy protein and 220mg of calcium. That means just one glass packs a powerful punch of nutrients your body needs — whether you’re pushing through a tough training session or just getting through a busy day.

MEET THE RUNNING TEAM.

We are Super excited to introduce our Great North Run, running team.

Gabriel Smith

Gabriel began his running journey during lockdown, since achieving a marathon PB of 2:29:46. As with all runners there have been a few ups & downs along the way, but getting involved with the sport has changed his life for the better.

He was previously working in the world of audit, but at the start of the year took a career path diversion into the online world, as a running coach & creator. 

Gabriel is looking forward to a solid block of training ahead of the GNR in September, having a big focus on recovery, this time round with the help of SuperNutrio.

Rachel Annetts

Hi, I’m Rach – runner, dog mum, and adventure chaser. I’m so excited to be running the Great North Run for the amazing SuperNutrio this year! I switched to their milk in February and it’s been a game-changer. Gentle on my stomach, packed with goodness, and brilliant for energy, recovery, and gut health.

I started running in 2019 after a tough breakup, and what began as a way to cope became a journey of healing, growth, and joy. I always say it was the “worst best” thing that happened to me.

Now I see myself as your relatable running bestie – sharing the real ups and downs, because running isn’t always easy, and that’s okay. Running is for everyone, no matter your pace or story. If you run, you’re a runner. Let’s celebrate that together at the Great North Run!

Louis Hodgson

I fell in love with running in the hills of Greece when I moved there for half a year.  Since then, I’ve completed various marathons, constantly looking to improve. Most recently, I ran a personal best of 3:08 at the Edinburgh Marathon in May.   I’m a passionate runner from Newcastle, where my first ever race was the Great North Run back in 2018 — a race that holds a special place in my heart and represents much more than just completing a half marathon. I’m always looking for ways to challenge myself and inspire others through running.

Raja Aslam

I’m Raja Aslam from Blackburn – foster carer, proud dad of 8 (four birth children and four foster children), and a passionate runner for the past 6 years. It’s an honour to be part of the SuperNutrio team at this year’s Great North Run.

Just a week before, I’ll be completing my biggest challenge yet: running a half marathon every day for 9 days, from Manchester to The Hague. It’s going to test me physically and mentally, but SuperNutrio will keep me fuelled with the protein I need to recover and stay strong.

The Great North Run will be the perfect celebration to round it all off, and I can’t wait to take on the course with thousands of others. See you on race day!

Kira Kernan

I'm a former club runner, returning to running after a ten year hiatus. It has been tough getting back into it as age and weight gain has had an impact. However,  while I'm not going to smash any PBs, the training itself has had a hugely positive effect on my health, both mentally and physically and I'm excited to be taking part in the iconic GNR.

Why Runners Love SuperNutrio

Running is tough on the body — and recovery is where the magic happens. SuperNutrio is the perfect training partner for runners of all levels. Whether you’re training for your first 5K or your fiftieth half marathon, SuperNutrio helps you stay strong, train hard, and recover well. Here’s why:

After a long run or an intense training session, your muscles need protein to repair and grow. SuperNutrio delivers the high-quality protein your body craves to bounce back stronger. It contains all nine essential amino acids in the perfect combination necessary for your body.

Running is a high-impact sport, so bone health is essential. With 80% more calcium than standard cow's milk, SuperNutrio helps support healthy bones and reduce the risk of injury. Regular consumption helps prevent osteoporosis and maintains bone density.

Unlike many protein drinks, SuperNutrio is also hydrating — making it ideal after workouts or races. It’s a refreshing and nourishing way to refuel. Perfect on it's own or with fruit and veg in smoothie.

For Every Body, Every Day

SuperNutrio isn’t just for runners — it’s for every body, every day.
Protein and calcium are vital for overall health, yet many of us fall short. SuperNutrio helps you get more of both, effortlessly — no need to change your diet. Simply swap your usual milk for SuperNutrio in your cereal, coffee, smoothies, or post-workout shake.

Whether you’re training for a marathon or just tackling your to-do list, our mission is to support stronger, healthier lives by making better nutrition easy and accessible. That’s why we created a milk that delivers more of what your body needs — naturally.

No gimmicks. No additives. Just naturally nutritious milk that fits your lifestyle.
