Endurance Sports Coalition
Speedy Sneakers joins the Endurance Sports Coalition, and together with over 600 plus other event organizers in running, triathlon, cycling and obstacle course racing.
With the current Covid-19 stay at home orders and the ban on large gatherings, endurance sports organizations and related companies, including charitable organizations are suffering financially. As Joe DeSena, founder of the Spartan Races said, “there is no business model in the world that supports a plan where there are no revenues coming in and expenses are going out.”
Endurance sports which can be defined as anything from a 5k run/walk event to a full Ironman triathlon provides the public with many health related benefits. These include;
- Healthier Bodies
- A Better Self Image
- Stronger Minds
- Better Sleep
- More Energy
Many millions of participants have improved their lifestyles and outlooks from being involved in endurance sports. If this sector of business were to suffer extreme hardships that make it impossible to recover, many millions of participants would lose access to the events and support programs that have helped them lead better and healthier lives.
