Roll Recovery Offers to Pay U.S. Marathon Trials Registration Fees—All of Them
For the price of a few cups of coffee, the Boulder company is helping offset the cost of Olympic dreams
Feb 5, 2016
When the best marathoners in the country toe the line of the U.S. Olympic Team Trials Marathon on February 13 in Los Angeles, California, it will be for many the peak of their athletic achievements. But just reaching that start carries a hefty price tag, not the least of which is a $30 entry fee charged by U.S.A. Track and Field (USATF) for the privilege of competing for an Olympic berth. Roll Recovery, a Boulder, Colorado company that designs recovery tools, thought this fee was too much, so it announced on Friday it would reimburse all qualified runners.
