Hi Baystate Team Members,
I’m a Holliston-based triathlete and runner and I’ve recently launched a company called Athletes for a Fit Planet. Our mission is to help race directors adopt environmentally responsible practices. And as of next week, we’ll provide athletes with a directory of “sustainable” races. We’re focusing on triathlons and road races first and will expand to other mass-participation events as the company grows. We are currently working with three race directors in New England and we’re in discussions with a dozen more. I’m also working with the USAT on a four-person task force, to help the USAT establish a long-term Sustainability strategy. For details of the business, please check out our website at www.afitplanet.com.
To better understand the demographics of the racing community, I’m asking athletes to complete a quick 5-minute survey about their racing profiles and attitudes on environmental issues. The more responses we get, the more race directors will gain a true understanding of the demands of the athletes they serve. And the faster we’ll see positive changes at events.
I’d really appreciate it if you’d fill out the survey. Here’s the survey website:
