The Tailwind Nutrition Australia Story.
MEET THE TAILWIND TEAM
“With shorter distances, you can usually push through to the finish,” he says, “but with a 100-miler, everything has to go right, not only in your training but on the day itself.” He believes it’s a true test of resilience and mental strength.
Gavin’s passion for running goes beyond just competing. He wishes everyone in the world would run, seeing it as a transformative and self-empowering pursuit. “Running is a solo journey, but it requires a community of support. In the end, it's just you putting one foot in front of the other. I truly believe the world would be a better place if more people embraced the power of running.”
Gavin - Co Director, Sponsorship and Nutrition
Gavin's passion is about ensuring that athletes have everything they need to succeed, from zoom/phone talks offering expert advice on fueling strategies to being the face at events. With a zest for life and adventure, he sailed to Australia from South Africa on a tiny 9-meter sailboat with three others. This journey taught him a powerful lesson: you can achieve anything you set your mind to, even if it means jumping into icy 12-degree waters 1,500 miles from land to rescue a broken rudder. His personal favourite race distance is the 100-mile, a challenge that, like life, is full of unexpected highs and lows.
What makes Bek truly happy is the Tailwind team. Walking into a space where everyone enjoys what they do is a highlight of her day. While she may not be the best at packing orders (they keep her at a distance for that!), she’s always ready to lend a hand wherever she can.
The sense of family at Tailwind is what makes it special. Reading messages from the community reminds her of the wonderful connections they’ve built together. Bek is thankful for everyone on this journey; together, they’re more than just a business—they’re a family united by a love for the outdoors and the joy that Tailwind brings to their lives.
Rebekah - Co Director & Head of making sh&t happen
Rebekah, known as Bek, enjoys her journey with Tailwind Nutrition Australia. Being part of this business and working alongside her best friend, Gav, makes every day feel like play.
The great outdoors has always been Bek’s playground. She started as a hiker, evolved into a runner, and eventually discovered her passion for trail running ultras. If it involves nature, she’s eager to take part in any adventure. Bek’s entrepreneurial spirit has been with her for a long time. With a background in events on Sydney Harbour, she was drawn to Tailwind and decided to dive in fully. She’s involved in many aspects of the business, from managing client relationships to overseeing financial reporting, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
Ally - Business Development Manager
Ally is a longtime member of the Tailwind family; her journey with us started right at the beginning of Tailwind Australia. Watching it grow from the ground up has been an incredible experience, and she’s loved every step of the way. As Business Development Manager, she gets to do what she does best—connect with people, talk shop with retailers, and soak up the energy at events. Whether it’s introducing new people to Tailwind or catching up with longtime partners, every conversation is a chance to share her passion.
When she’s not at Tailwind HQ, you’ll find her in the gym, chalking up for another big lift. Powerlifting is her passion, and she loves the challenge of pushing heavier and getting stronger. Tailwind’s Recovery Mix has been a total game-changer for competition day! Nothing beats hitting a new PR and celebrating with a cold (or hot) Recovery Mix, and a well-earned meal.
For Ally, it’s all about community—whether that’s in the gym, at a Tailwind event, or just chatting with like-minded people who love what they do. Being part of the Tailwind journey isn’t just a job—it’s an adventure filled with incredible people, big lifts, and plenty of fun along the way.
