The RaceSaver™ Bag Team travelled to the Big Island in Hawaii for the Ironman® World Championships. Our goals was to test the RaceSaver™ Bag in the most unfriendly weather conditions possible.
The heat and humidity on the Big Island, combined with the reflective power of the lava, combine to create a crucible of conditions that can bring even the fittest and most prepared athletes to their knees.
We are pleased to report that the bag was a success…our athletes used the bags in training and on race day, as you’ll see below.
Even better, we got some great feedback from everyone including industry partners, on how we can improve it. Enjoy our photos below and remember you can get your own RaceSaver™ Bag anytime in our online store.

I’m just an Olympic distance age grouper and may be out of the loop with some of the new special needs items, so I was interested to learn more about this bag. I see it was tested and deemed a success in the heat and humidity in Kona, but what does this RaceSaver bag do? Click on another link? Reading between the lines I’m guessing it’s for ice?
