Ultra Jackpot 100 Win
ESTERO, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 17, 2026 / Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:ASBP) ("Aspire" or the "Company") wholly owned subsidiary, Buzz Bomb Caffeine Company, is proud to announce that elite ultra-marathoner and BUZZ BOMB Global Brand Ambassador Ashley Paulson will attempt to shatter the female world record for the fastest 100-mile treadmill run.
The historic attempt will take place live at the Boston Marathon Expo at the John B. Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center on Saturday, April 18, 2026. This Expo is held in conjunction with the Boston Marathon. Paulson aims to beat the current mark of 14:15:08, pushing the limits of human endurance in front of thousands of spectators during one of the most prestigious weekends in global running.

Paulson is no stranger to the record books. On February 20, 2026, she set the current world record for the fastest female to run 100 miles (road) at the Jackpot 100 Mile Ultra with a staggering time of 12:19:34. This upcoming challenge transitions her elite speed to the treadmill, a feat requiring immense mental and physical fortitude.
Commenting on her use of BUZZ BOMB throughout the 100 Mile Ultra race, Ashley Paulson said, "I was using a BUZZ BOMB every hour to keep my energy steady while chasing the 100-mile world record. The easy delivery under the tongue kicks in fast without the upset stomach issues of traditional caffeine. It's just smooth, consistent energy that kept me cruising mile after mile."
Paulson's upcoming attempt will showcase her endurance and the mental fortitude required for long-distance treadmill running. This event highlights the intersection of elite athleticism and specialized performance support during one of the most significant weekends in the running community.
