Ascent Protein, a nutrition brand with products designed for athletes and training, joined on as the Official Performance Nutrition sponsor of the Spartan Race through May 2017.

“Competitive Spartan Race athletes strive to increase strength, speed and stamina and this requires workouts that constantly break down muscle tissue” said a representative for Ascent.
“Like the athletes it works to serve, Ascent is dedicated to not taking short cuts and aims to set a new benchmark in protein purity.”

Based in Denver and family owned, Ascent’s parent company, Leprino Foods, has 30 years of experience producing high quality proteins from milk.

“Promoting sound nutrition in our racers is core to Spartan Race’s values as a trusted health and wellness platform. In our continued mission to promote a healthy lifestyle, we are excited to announce our partnership with Ascent,” said Kenneth Koleyni Executive Vice President of Strategic Development of Spartan Race.
