TAMPA, Fla. and WHIPPANY, N.J., Sept. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- IRONMAN®, a Wanda Sports Group company, along with Aleve®, the pain relief brand trusted by millions of Americans, is excited to announce a new partnership of the 2019 Vega IRONMAN® World Championship, the most iconic one-day endurance event in the world. Aleve® will sponsor the event's "No Pain, No Gain Mile Challenge," in which runners who achieve the quickest time in the sponsored mile will receive a prize provided by Aleve®.

The IRONMAN® World Championship is the pinnacle of endurance racing with over 95,000 athletes competing to qualify at more than 40 global IRONMAN® events each year.

"It's an exciting time for IRONMAN®, and it's a great opportunity to partner with Aleve®, a leader in this field and a brand our athletes use – whether they are professional athletes, weekend warriors or everyday enthusiasts. We are glad to welcome Aleve® to our `Ohana," said Matthieu Van Veen, Chief Revenue Officer for The IRONMAN® Group. "Whether during training or after the big event, these athletes need safe and effective solutions that allow them to address the muscle aches and pain that could hold them back from being their best. This is why the collaboration with Aleve® for the IRONMAN® World Championship is such a perfect match." 

Aleve® is a proven and trusted choice for minor back, body, and muscle aches, as well as other common types of pain with which many athletes are familiar. It lasts longer than other OTC pain relievers*, which is really important when you consider the pain associated with training and racing often lasts longer than a few hours. Aleve® is proven pain relief that lasts all day† with fewer pills*, benefits that Lisa Tecklenburg, Bayer's Vice President Pain/Cardio, said makes it a natural choice for active, busy adults.

"When people hear 'IRONMAN®,' they know that it stands for overcoming obstacles to reach the pinnacle of performance," Tecklenburg said. "Aches and pains can be obstacles as well, for all of us – whether we are athletes or work in an office chair. The team at Aleve® understands how important it is to all of us that we can perform at our highest levels.

"Our partnership with IRONMAN® exemplifies this spirit, and we are proud that Aleve's® proven benefits will be highlighted as part of this iconic racing event."

Viewers of the 2019 Vega IRONMAN® World Championship can enjoy 20 hours of comprehensive live race day coverage globally via IRONMAN NOW™ on Facebook Watch – www.facebookwatch.com/IRONMANnow – and through regional television coverage, including NBC Sports in the United States. Last year's IRONMAN® World Championship live coverage included everything from the early-morning body marking to the final-hour finish-line celebration and saw nearly 20 million total views on Facebook Watch.
