Epic adventure racing is always on the minds of Team Ultimate Direction. Blending professional athletes and serious outdoor enthusiasts, the team competes at the highest levels of international adventuring racing. The athletes' winning strategy integrates their focused training and racing methods, as well as their successful – and extremely diverse – working backgrounds. The team had great results in 2005, 2006 and 2007 with top-place finishes in high-profile events like the Big Blue Adventure Race Series and the Moab Extreme Expedition Race. And the team is confident it can keep the wins coming in 2008.

"Our partnership with Ultimate Direction is the ideal blend of cooperation, communication, and support that allows us to compete in the highly competitive adventure racing world. We know our hydration products will always perform, no matter what the conditions. So we can concentrate on competing, as well as spreading the word about Ultimate Direction and its superior products."
