Three Weeks To Go!
The Running USA Industry Conference is right around the
corner. With three weeks to go, we're in our own final stages of event
preparation and are truly excited with how this year's event continues to shape
up. With so many incredible opportunities to learn, connect and celebrate, we
want to share a few updates so you don't miss out on any of the
action.

Industry
Innovation Showcase and Expo
Our Industry Innovation Showcase, where companies share
their products, gear and technology for 15-minutes to attendees, has a few
additional spots available for featured presenters. This is an opportunity those
looking to connect race directors with their products and services should take
advantage of. If interested, please reach out to Rich Harshbarger at rich@runningusa.org.
Similarly,
we only have a handful of booths left for the expo, where over 500 conference
attendees spend time searching for race options for the year ahead. Get in on
the action today and contact Rich to find out how to register.
Help
Grow the Sport of Running
As in years past, we're fundraising to support the sport
of distance running. Unlike years past, we're taking a bit of a different
approach this year. Running USA has a strong history of supporting other
non-profit running entities and this year's fundraising effort adopts a
grassroots approach open to donors at all funding levels. We're asking anyone
who loves runners and the sport of running to join us in supporting this great
cause.
2015 Registered Attendee List
The current list of registered attendees is now
available online for viewing. Please bear in mind this list is updated
bi-weekly.
