Devon Crosby-Helms

Devon is fast. After bursting on the Ultra Scene in ’07 with some impressive finishes including setting several course records, Devon has continued to excel and is now recognized as among the world’s top ultra distance runners. In 2009, she held the ultra running worlds on the edge of their seats while she and running partner battled seasoned veterans to win the Gore-tex Challenge Stage Race through Colorado. She then went on to crush course records in several races including The JFK 50, the oldest and largest Ultra races in the country

“Joining the Hydrapak team was an easy decision,” says Devon Crosby-Helms. “I believe in the products.  For me, the Gel-bots and Soft Flasks are an absolute part of my essentials now.  I am able to stay on top of my nutrition and hydration needs easily, without having to fuss with wrappers or packages.  Using Gel-bots and Soft Flasks saves me minutes and seconds in getting my nutrition in while racing. That may not seem like a lot, but during 50 and 100 mile races it can make a huge difference. To me, the details matter and Hydrapak covers two of the most important, hydration and nutrition.”

As a personal chef specializing in not only holistic natural meals, she has a keen interest in improving athletic performance through nutrition. We think it’s working for her.

Hydrapak is proud to be her partner in this quest.
