Founded by real ultra athletes

“About 10 years ago, I qualified for the World Championships and realised my nutrition was the weakest thing in my kit. Above is what I built instead, and why it's now the fuel on course at every UTMB World Series race.”

Your legs don't end your race.Your stomach does.

The problem nobody names

Your legs don't end your race.
Your stomach does.

Runners call it gut failure

Surveys of ultramarathon finishers consistently rank GI distress among the top reasons for DNFs — ahead of injury.

The cause is the fuel:

sugar-loaded gels that spike and crash, synthetic ingredient lists your gut refuses at hour four, and one texture you're supposed to choke down for thirty hours straight.

The spike and crash

High-glycemic gels dump sugar fast, then drop you harder. The "bonk" isn't a fitness failure — it's a fueling design failure.

The flavor wall

By hour three, the thought of one more identical sweet gel makes your throat close. So you under-fuel and under-fuelling ends races.

The ingredients gamble

Ingredient lists you can't pronounce, tested to marathon distance at best. Past that, you're the experiment.

How näak solves it

All-in-one nutrition.
Three textures.
So your gut never slows you down.

Our UTMB pack

All-in-one nutrition.Three textures. So your gut never slows you down.

The flagship - BOOST™ Gel

Semi-liquid and fast-acting, 100% natural.
A 2:1 glucose fructose ratio of short to complex carbs smooths the curve a standard gel spikes.

Every product is made with 100% natural ingredients. Three textures give your gut options. Because when your stomach stops tolerating one texture after six hours of effort, you switch formats instead of stopping fuelling.

FROM THE FOUNDERS

"We qualified for the World Triathlon Championships and realised our fuel was the weakest thing in our kit."

William Walcker and Minh-Anh Pham.

The two friends built näak in Montréal in 2016 to fix their own race-day nutrition.

Today it's the official on-course fuel of the UTMB World Series, co-developed with professional athletes and sports nutritionists.

Questions worth answering before checkout.

What's the difference between a gel, a purée, and a drink mix?
All-in-one nutrition, three textures: gels are fast-acting and semi-liquid, drink mixes dissolve into your bottle for liquid carbs on the move, waffles have an easy-to-swallow texture. Our fueling system exists so you can switch formats when your gut gets tired of one, instead of stopping fuelling.
Will these actually sit well on my stomach?
All our products use simple and complex carbohydrates to avoid energy spikes; drink mixes use an alkaline pH to help minimize stomach acidity. Both are built to reduce the GI distress that ends most people's race day. And both are proven at UTMB distances, not just marathon distance.
Can I use these during a UTMB race?
Yes, näak is the official on-course nutrition & hydration partner of the UTMB World Series. The products in the UTMB Discovery Pack will be available at every aid-station. What you train with is what's on the table.
Are they vegan or gluten-free?
All our products are plant-based. Gels and drink mixes are gluten-free. Waffles contain oat flour. Check the label on each product for your specific dietary needs.
What if it doesn't work for me?
Take it on a real long run first — that's the only test that matters. If it doesn't sit right, our 30-day guarantee covers your first order. Contact us and we'll make it right.
What do I get with näak+ membership?
A free account, 15% off every subscription order, access to member-only products, and invites VIP community events
