ABOUT NN Running Team
The brainchild of Global Sports Communication director Jos Hermens, the formation of the NN RunningTeam, has proved as one of the most innovative and ground-breaking developments in athletics. Launched in April 2017, the project has delivered on its goals to provide the athletes with access to better coaching, medical care and additional athlete support services with particular progress made in offering regular physiotherapy to athletes in training camps and during competition. That extra support has been reflected in the results with the NN Running Team claiming more than 175 victories on the global road running stage in 3.5 years including several Marathon Major successes and world half marathon and marathon titles. Only in 2020, the NN Running Team managed to break four world records on track and road. The team too are also making significant progress in growing brand awareness.
