This partnership aims at helping athletes and active people stay healthy and cross the finish line," said Keats McGonigal, Vice President of Operations, IRONMAN North America.

We're confident the partnership between IRONMAN, CURAD and ActivICE will enhance training and recovery for our community."

"IRONMAN's goals and philosophy closely match our own, and we are thrilled to announce this collaboration. Whether you're training for an IRONMAN or running for fun on the weekend, our hospital-approved, life-tested, and state-of-the-art products are the perfect solution for active people who believe ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE®," said Christopher Brown, Senior Marketing Manager – Retail, Consumer Division at Medline.
