Melisa Rollins

A Utah native, Rollins balances her blossoming cycling career with her work as a chemist at ARUP Laboratories, a national nonprofit and academic reference laboratory at the forefront of diagnostic medicine based in Salt Lake City, UT. Her road to the bike began in 2016 when her stepdad won a mountain bike in a raffle. He offered her the bike if she would commit to racing the Leadville 100. She accepted the gift and the challenge. She did very well in 2021 Leadville 100 MTB where she placed 6th.

The Feed High Performance Team, Professional Cyclist

My partnership with The Feed has been one of the most meaningful partnerships I’ve had in my cycling career. In long endurance races like Unbound 200 and Leadville 100, I’ve found that having a dialed nutrition plan can be just as important as time spend training on the bike. Being able to use all sorts of products from different brands helps me eliminate flavor fatigue while still optimizing the intake of calories and carbs in training and racing.
