I'm John Moffat and I've been a Hammer athlete since 2024. I compete in the challenging sport of adventure racing, where we race through all kinds of weather and terrain. Smart nutrition and hydration in these events is key to a successful race. That's why I rely on Hammer products to keep me going up mountains, down gravel roads, through whitewater rapids, up cliffs, over lakes, and through some of the most beautiful, remote places in the United States. While racing, Fizz, Perpetuem, Hammer Gel, and Endurolytes are my go-to products to keep the energy up and the cramping down. I also like to supplement my off-season workouts with HEED and Whey Protein. Prior to learning about and using Hammer products, racing nutrition was always a bit of a mystery and struggle for me. I often took little thought to what I would consume before, during, or after long rides, big hikes, or hot runs. On one occasion, I bonked extremely hard near the end of the Chicago Ragnar and I figured I was just bound to suffer like that during endurance events. Now, it's a different story. Fueling right doesn't take all the suffering out of racing, but it does put me in a place to tackle the challenge from a better physical and mental position.
