We are thrilled to share that the Kerrville Triathlon Festival has renewed its partnership with GU Energy Labs for the fourth consecutive year. Serving as the Official Energy Gel sponsor, GU Energy Labs will supply on-course nutrition to athletes tackling the various triathlon distances. Kerrville Tri, owned and produced by High Five Events, is set to take place on September 28 & 29 in Kerrville, Texas.
