Hi Everyone

We (USATF) are making a push to collaborate more with Running USA and RRCA to continue to champion and support Long Distance Running.

I currently hold the USATF seat on the RUNNING USA Board of Directors. We are also working with our 5-C partners which include RUNNING USA and RRCA to use their votes and roles on the various USATF LDR Committees.

I was hoping you could assist RUNNING USA in getting the Global Runner Survey sponsored by Active pushed out to your audiences.

Running USA put it out just last week and they are reaching out to members and friends to ask for help getting the word out.

They are hoping to get more than 10,000 responses this year with a deadline of July 19.

The information helps them paint a clear picture of what is happening in the running industry. They share this important data with the community to help create better events that appeal to the new trends or age groups.

Would you be willing to do the survey and share the link with your team, athlete, social media audience and friends?

Here is a link to the survey: https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/7861197/2024-Race-Trends-Global-Runner-Survey

Thank you and I will be in touch soon with more updates from LDR.
