RACEPLACE Information

Our Why and Mission: We believe when runners, cyclists, and triathletes find their finish line after a race, they become better, healthier and more accomplished people; and we’re passionate about giving them the support they need every step of the way. Our mission is to connect people with the endurance events that make them better, healthier, and more accomplished in life. ---------------------------- Our Story: In 1984, in San Diego, California, a quickly growing endurance race community was facing a challenge: Athletes needed an easy-to-use resource to find all the upcoming running, cycling and multisport races in their area. In 1985, founders Rob Wallack along with owners Rose and Mike Reilly worked together to bring an idea to life to solve this challenge. The idea was to provide athletes with free access to a print race calendar of the upcoming races in their area. RACEPLACE Magazine was born — and has been on an amazing ride ever since. By 1990, it made its way into nearly 1,000 running stores, fitness shops and finish lines, and became the leading resource for finding races in Southern California. In 2001, RACEPLACE.com was released and provided the same services to those that wanted to find their races online. Today, we have over 60,000 unique visitors per month and a 70,000 person email list and are growing nationally. ---------------------------- What is RACEPLACE?
