Can I use the HydraPouch at a race even if the organizer doesn’t encourage Cup-Free Racing and doesn’t have UltraSpout-equipped high speed dispensers on course?

Absolutely – the HydraPouch works great in any race. You’ll still get all the hydration benefits – more comfortable drinking with no splashing, spilling, or gulping – and because you’ll be drinking your fluids instead of wearing them you’ll probably use fewer cups.
