Sponsor Highlight-Honey Stinger!

We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful, local company, Honey Stinger, support us in our athletic endeavors and adventures!
Based in Steamboat Springs, CO, Honey Stinger makes amazing, honey based energy foods with natural ingredients. Most of their products are also organic.

Everyone loves Honey Stinger, even Delta Rose!
I have been a member of the Honey Stinger Hive for the past five years, and am so glad to continue another year with them! I really admire this company for their support of athletes, both competitive and non-competitive, and their support of local events. It's wonderful to see a company truly stand by their product and give back to the athletic community.
Last year, when I raced the Firecracker 50 mountain bike race in Breckenridge, Honey Stinger provided the neutral support for the race, which meant that every racer got to enjoy their fantastic energy food!

I know that finding an energy food that works is one of the hardest things an athlete has to do. What can you eat that will give you energy, not upset your stomach, and keep your blood sugar steady and sustained...? It can take years for people to find something that works just right for them.

Fortunately, Honey Stinger's all natural ingredients and honey base work very well for me, and for most of the athletes I've met. In fact, I've turned all the athletes that I coach onto Honey Stinger, and it works for people from 26 years old up to 50+ years old, males and females!

My favorite, go-to products are their Organic Waffles and their Organic Energy Chews. But all of their products are delicious, and I've had the pleasure of sampling everything they carry!

Last year, Hal and I trained exclusively using Honey Stinger Waffles, Energy Chews, and Energy Gels. And yes, Hal reaps the benefit of my sponsorship :)

So thank you Honey Stinger for supporting local athletes like me!
