Mel

Trail runner supported by The North Face and (sports) nutritionist.

I was born and raised in beautiful Bavaria, but over the past three years I've fallen in love with the Innsbruck trails. Besides running, you can often find me on my road bike or skiing, with my dog ​​Momo, or simply enjoying chocolate ice cream at sunset on the Inn River. Nutrition plays a big role for me, but especially a sustainable and holistic approach.

Pro trail runner for adidas terrex and versatile outdoor industry veteran.

After working for the adidas headquarters in the beautiful Harz region for a few years, I gave up my job as a product developer and manager a few years ago to try my hand at being a pro trail runner.

Since then, I have been working remotely in a marketing agency and recently also as a trail running coach.

Row

Trail running athlete for The North Face.

I also grew up in beautiful Bavaria, more precisely near Munich, and especially during the coronavirus pandemic, I discovered my love for the mountains and endurance sports. To create optimal training conditions for running, I moved to Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the summer of 2024. Besides running, you'll mostly find me on my road bike, and in winter, I also enjoy working as a ski instructor on the slopes or on a relaxed ski tour. Unfortunately, I don't have much free time left between training and my full-time job, but I prefer to spend it with friends over a relaxing coffee. Since training and nutrition are closely linked, and I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to both, a healthy and, above all, sports-appropriate diet is essential for me.

Our journey with SUNN.: From podcast to our own product.

In mid-2024, we decided to start a podcast about sports nutrition and create an Instagram account. Our motivation? The supplement market was confusing, and even among our friends, there were many myths surrounding healthy nutrition for sports. We wanted to change that – to give something back to the community that means so much to us.

We named our channel SUNN , inspired by the Norwegian word sʉn , meaning "healthy." The name also evokes the sun—a source of energy we all love.

Through the podcast, we not only shared knowledge but also learned an incredible amount ourselves. One thing became particularly clear to us: Many of our fellow athletes weren't finding a truly suitable carbohydrate drink mix. The few good products on the market were simply too expensive for many.

This motivated us to take action ourselves. In April 2025, the time had come: Our High Carb and Ultra High Carb Drink Mix hit the market.

Our vision is a world where sports nutrition is not only accessible and affordable, but truly supports endurance athletes in their health and performance – based on science, simplicity, and sustainability.

We are committed to making scientifically sound sports nutrition and the necessary knowledge accessible to everyone. Our goal is to improve long-term health and performance.
