Zach Calton
Off-Road Cyclist
Zach Calton is an off-road racer from Ogden, UT. He has won Crusher in the Tushar, Breck Epic, and Point to Point, and has top 10 finishes at events like Unbound, Leadville, and Sea Otter. He comes from an MTB background and has been racing the LifeTime Grand Prix series.
Zach's first experience with Precision Fuel & Hydration came via a borrowed PF 30 Chew where the compact source of carbs saved him from a bonk deep in the mountains above Fort Collins, CO in 2023. After officially joining the team in 2025 he has come to value the ability to modulate carb intake from 60 on up to 150g/hr with PF 60 Chews Bars, PF 30 Gels, and Carb Only Drink Mix for everything from recovery rides to 10 hour gravel races, while keeping electrolyte content consistent with PH 1000 tablets and sachets.
Off the bike, Zach has a degree in Business Administration from the University of Utah and enjoys baking, running, and backcountry skiing.
By separating my electrolyte and carbohydrate needs using different PF&H products, I'm able to easily customize my fueling strategy to fit my physiology, which helps me perform my best!
