Cirque Series Mountain Racers Powered by Nature
August 8, 2025
The Cirque Series is the premier mountain running race series in the U.S., taking place at some of the most stunning locations in the country. Featuring steep-and-challenging courses, these races push athletes to their limits with big climbs, thrilling descents, and breathtaking scenery.
Nature's Sunshine is proud to be the Title Sponsor of the 2025 Cirque Series—alongside our friends at La Sportiva—and we’re here to fuel performance and recovery at the highest level.
FUELING THE MOUNTAIN TEAM WITH POWER BEETS
Our very own Nature’s Sunshine Mountain Team athletes rely on Power Beets for both race-day performance and faster recovery. Why? Because Power Beets combine the natural endurance-boosting benefits of beetroot with circulation-supporting herbs to give athletes a substantial edge.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND POWER BEETS
- Better Circulation of Oxygen: Beets are rich in dietary nitrates, which the body converts into nitric oxide—helping blood vessels relax and improving oxygen delivery throughout the body. Nature's Sunshine sources beetroot from Tibet, as these beets deliver the highest concentration of natural nitrate.
- Increased VO₂: VO₂ (maximal oxygen uptake) measures how much oxygen your body can use during intense exercise. The higher your VO₂, the more efficiently your body can convert oxygen into performance—critical for mountain running where every breath counts.
