About Us

First Endurance was started by two racing fanatics (a cyclist and a triathlete) with a healthy obsession for sports nutrition. The idea was simple. We wanted to give endurance athletes access to formulas that are developed for one specific reason-to maximize endurance performance. At First Endurance, our approach is different. Because of our core values and uncompromising standards, we develop the best products available. We are committed to using only the highestquality ingredients. We employ the latest technological advancements and demand the finest packaging materials to protect the product from the elements (moisture, oxygen and UV degradation). Only when we are 100% satisfied that these standards are met, do we offer the products to you.

Our Mission

Integrate our passion for racing, knowledge of sports nutrition, integrity, and values to provide endurance athletes with the ultimate, scientifically validated, high-performance racing formulations.

Commitment to Research

Research is our most important value at First Endurance. We are driven by a desire to ensure our products are proven to enhance endurance performance and have scientific validation. At First Endurance, we refuse to reduce costs by using "pixie dust" amounts of ingredients just to dress up the label. Our formulations utilize the same levels (sometimes more) of the active ingredients that were used in the actual human scientific research. We are meticulous about research and go out of our way to make sure we have addressed each of our stringent requirements. All products that First Endurance develops are based on human scientific research.

Commitment to Quality

First Endurance uses only the finest ingredients and follows stringent quality control. Supplements can be easily ruined. Even if you buy the right ingredients, they can degrade quickly and loose their efficacy if they aren't handled under the most stringent controls. We are determined to ensure nothing goes wrong with any step of the way. For example, OPTYGEN is packaged in an amber glass bottle and utilizes colored capsules to reduce UV light, oxygen and moisture degradation, ensuring the highest quality, potency, and purity.

Focus

At First Endurance, we are centered on endurance performance. Because we only focus on developing high-performance endurance formulations, we are the best at what we do.

Innovation

First Endurance is committed to advancing the state of the art. First Endurance's competitive strategy is based on having the best, patentable, formulations, technologies and delivery systems available.

Active in the Racing Community

First Endurance proudly supports the racing community. We sponsor four professional cycling teams, and a number of other elite athletes. We have a dynamic relationship with the First Endurance athletes. This collaboration allows our Research and Development team to continue to push the limits of endurance performance.

Commitment to Racing

Everyone who works at First Endurance races. Not just occasionally either, every week. We spend a lot of time packed in a car driving to early-season races (hopefully in warmer climates) and have stayed in more grungy hotels than we care to remember. We race when it is below freezing or raining sideways. We hang around the hotel after a race wondering when we'll get the feeling back in our feet. We know what it's like to chase a breakaway for an hour just to get a flat once we finally bridge the gap. Most importantly - we know what it takes to win races, when everything works out just right. We understand the work ethic, sacrifices, dedication and satisfaction that goes into every victory.
