Let's talk partnership

The Problem

Companies invest in events, not in preparation

Every year, thousands of companies enter teams in running events. They buy the shirts, pay the entry fees, and post the photos. But what happens before race day?

Most employees show up undertrained, get injured, or drop out. The investment in the event is wasted, and the potential for real team building and health impact is lost.

The typical approach

  • xSign up for a race, hope for the best
  • xNo structured training plan for the team
  • xHigh dropout and injury rates
  • xOne-off event, no lasting impact
