Fixx Nutrition Celebrates Gold Coast Marathon Partnership and Re-Launches New Cold Brew Range

Burleigh Heads sports nutrition brand returns as official event partner for the 46th ASICS Gold Coast Marathon, bringing a new caffeine range to the start line

Gold Coast, QLD, 27 May 2026 - Fixx Nutrition, the Burleigh Heads-based sports nutrition brand, has been confirmed as an official event partner of the 2026 ASICS Gold Coast Marathon (4-5 July 2026). 

The partnership includes naming rights to the 63.3km Fixx Nutrition Gold Coast Double, an ultra-distance event that pairs the half-marathon and full-marathon across the two-day weekend.

With record-breaking entries surpassing 42,000 runners for 2026, the Gold Coast Marathon enters its 46th year as one of Australia’s premier road running events, with Fixx Nutrition products being served on course every five kilometres for runners needing hydration. 

Eight races will take place across the weekend, from the junior dash through to the ultra-distance double. 

For Fixx Nutrition, the partnership is a homecoming: the brand manufactures all of its products in Burleigh Heads, less than 10 kilometres from the race precinct.

‘The Gold Coast Marathon is in our backyard, and that matters to us,’ said Michelle Buchegger, Co-Founder of Fixx Nutrition. 

‘Jan and I started this business on the Gold Coast in 2017. We test our products on these roads, and a lot of our earliest customers are Gold Coast runners. Partnering with an event that draws 42,000 entries from around the world, right here where we make everything, is something we are genuinely proud of.’

A new caffeine range for race day and beyond

Alongside the partnership announcement, Fixx Nutrition has launched its new Cold Brew range: a line of concentrated caffeine shots designed for athletes who want a precise, portable caffeine hit without the guesswork. The range includes three variants, each delivering 150mg of caffeine per 50ml shot (equivalent to a double espresso).

They are back due to demand with smart, all-natural new packaging, better for the environment, and aluminium replacing plastic bottles, same formulation, chemical and preservative free.

The Zero Cal Espresso contains 0g carbs, 0g sugar, and just 3kJ of energy, and is sweetened with organic stevia leaf extract. It suits athletes who want caffeine without additional fuel. The Espresso variant adds 16g of carbohydrates for those who want an energy boost alongside their caffeine. The Mocha rounds out the range with a chocolate-coffee flavour profile.

All three variants are small-batch brewed for a smooth, silky taste that sits well on both the palate and the stomach. They are 100 per cent natural, gluten-free, vegan and made in Australia to HACCP standards. The shots are compact enough to carry in a race belt or jersey pocket, making them practical as a pre-workout boost, a mid-race caffeine top-up or a portable coffee solution for training mornings.

‘We built the Cold Brew range because athletes kept telling us they wanted a clean caffeine option that did not upset their stomach mid-race,’ said Michelle Buchegger. 

‘A lot of caffeine products are either too sweet, too bulky or loaded with ingredients you would not choose on race morning. Ours is a 50ml shot, 150mg of caffeine, small-batch brewed so it tastes like actual coffee. You can take it at the start line, at an aid station, or just on the way to a Saturday morning session.’

The Cold Brew range joins Fixx Nutrition’s existing product line, which includes CrampFix (a rapid-action cramp-relief product), Gel X Pro energy gels, and Fuel X endurance drink mix. All products carry a 100 per cent satisfaction guarantee.

Available at the ASICS Sport & Leisure Expo

The Cold Brew range, along with the full Fixx Nutrition product line, will be available at the ASICS Sport & Leisure Expo during race weekend (4-5 July 2026). Athletes collecting their race bibs will be able to sample and purchase directly from the Fixx Nutrition stand.

The Cold Brew range is available now online at fixxnutrition.com/collections/fixx-cold-brew.
