Every one of our Team Chipotle athletes has had a unique journey. By highlighting their stories and how Chipotle has been a key component of their training regimens, we hope to inspire and fuel the next generation of great American athletes. - Chris Brandt, Chipotle's chief brand officer

As part of the promotion, Chipotle has partnered with these athletes and will feature their behind-the-scenes training videos on Instagram under the theme of "Unwrapped."

The limited-time gold foil burritos will be available for ordering in restaurants or online from participating Chipotle locations in the US and its seven restaurants in France.
