At our 2015 RunSignup Race Director/Timer Symposium, Andy Marsh from Playmakers shared his view of the synthesis between Races, Training Programs, and Running Stores:
We’ve shared our philosophy of the Running Community before; that
the running community is made up of tens of thousands of micro-communities that overlap – races, running clubs, running stores, timers, as well as many technology providers. Andy’s presentation is a prime example of these communities overlap, and how you can leverage the micro-communities in your area to improve your local Running Events.
