Luckily, I realized you can't accomplish a goal like mine by yourself. For this reason, I've affiliated myself with some of the best groups out there.
Associations
USA Triathlon
The best part of being a member of USA Triathlon is that I can be a part of the national rankings after participating in three sanctioned events.
Pikes Peak Road Runners
Without this group, not only would I not be where I'm at in running, but neither would Colorado Springs!
The Road Runners Club of America
The national association of running clubs, running events, and runners dedicated to promoting long distance running as a competitive sport and as healthful exercise.
American Trail Running Association
As much as I tell everyone I can only run on pavement and I can't run on trails, I am following the advice of a wise person: "lean toward the uncomfortable". I actually am enjoying trail runs more and I'm a short drive from some of the best trails around. ATRA promotes trail and mountain running ... both of which interest me!
Team Affiliations
Team FLUID
I am proud to be sponsored by FLUID as a part of Team FLUID during my Couch-To-Victory trek.
