Calling All Women Age 14+ Looking for a Life-Changing Experience!
The new TREK Women’s Triathlon Series is running in 10 cities in 2009. The Series is aimed at breaking down barriers for women athletes and is the ONLY women’s triathlon Series CREATED BY WOMEN, RUN BY WOMEN, FOR WOMEN.
Visit http://www.trekwomenstriathlonseries.com, select the race, and one of our 7 official race categories including Age Group, Mixed Age Group, Athena, Women in Uniform, Physically Challenged, Elite and Relay Team.
The entrance fee for the TREK WTS is $75.00, as the Series is respectful of the current economic climate. Also 7% (the current national unemployment rate) of each race market’s capacity will be given a complimentary entry to the Trek WTS upon evidence of unemployment. (All participants must pay $10.00 for USAT one day insurance.)
Additional: Join Hall of Fame triathlete Sally Edwards, Spokeswoman/Chief Inspiration Officer for the Trek Women’s Triathlon Series in this life-changing triathlon where every participant is a winner! Series Director Maggie Sullivan has been a major force in building participation opportunities within the sport of triathlon for women for over 19 years.
Team Survivor: The TREK Women’s Triathlon Series is an exclusive partner with team Survivor, a non-profit organization which directly supports those with a past or present cancer diagnosis. TREK WTS participants know, at the starting line, that they are personally and directly helping the woman standing next to them who has or is battling cancer.
