HITS
Triathlon Series will continue its national tour July 28-29, 2012 with a
weekend of racing in Sterling, Colorado and is eager to welcome volunteers to
get in on the action. HITS Triathlon Series will welcome 500 athletes to the Sterling
region, offering five race distances throughout the weekend, including the HITS
Open and a Sprint, Olympic, Half and Full distance race.
“Volunteers are the reason that these races
are possible,” said Mark H. Wilson, Race Director for HITS Triathlon Series.
“They not only help the event to run smoothly, but they are a source of
emotional and mental support for the athletes who are out there pushing the
limits of their bodies.”
The new
kid on the triathlon block, HITS Triathlon Series hopes to engage local
volunteers and build a lasting relationship with each community that they
visit. In addition, any organization that brings a group to volunteer on race
day will have the opportunity to use their hours served as a fundraiser.
“Our
number one priority is to grow this sport,” added Wilson. “Encouraging
volunteers is one way to do that. We’ve seen people volunteer at events who
never believed triathlon was an option for them and, a few races down the road,
we see their name on our HITS Open or Sprint participant lists.”
Whether it’s
checking athletes in at packet pick-up, handing out water at an aid station or
placing a medal around an athlete’s neck at the finish line, HITS Triathlon
Series will give its volunteers a front row seat at one of world’s most
inspiring sporting events.
Volunteer
registration is available online at HitsTriathlonSeries.com. Interested
volunteers can also contact HITS Triathlon Series by calling 845.246.8833 or by
