Flow’s CEO, Maurizio Patarnello, said, “We are thrilled that NYRR chose Flow as the new Official Water for its events, and are excited to activate our partnership starting today at the NYC Half. Flow’s electrolyte and mineral rich natural spring water will provide optimal hydration for runners, in the most sustainable bottled water package ever seen at a major sporting event. This will be the first of many events to come, culminating later this year with the NYC Marathon, and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership.”

Flow and NYRR aim to inspire runners and spectators alike to make more sustainable and healthy choices for themselves and the planet and will collaborate to make the upcoming events among the greenest yet, replacing thousands of plastic bottles from past events with mostly renewable-resource-based, recyclable cartons. Flow is B-Corp Certified with a best-in-class score of 126.5, the highest in the beverage category.

“We are looking forward to amplifying our new partnership with Flow as NYRR’s Official Water Partner at the United Airlines NYC Half,” said Christine Burke, NYRR’s Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships and Runner Products. “Together, we will be able to provide our running community sustainable and healthy choices to keep them hydrated for both this race and the years ahead.”

The United Airlines NYC Half takes runners on a 13.1-mile journey through New York City each spring. The race begins in Brooklyn near Prospect Park before taking runners across the East River via the Manhattan Bridge. Once in Manhattan, runners race along the Lower East Side, up to Midtown, and through Times Square before finishing in Central Park. The NYC Half will take place on Sunday, March 20, 2022.
