Run or Tri to Make a Difference
This year the Childhood Ovarian Cancer Association has partnered with Epic Races Tri Goddess Triathlon as the marquee fundraiser to further their mission and provide direct assistance to people affected by childhood ovarian cancer. The resources available to this population are scarce, so the work COVCA provides makes an impact, and you can be a part of it. We are helping assemble an inspirational team that will provide an individual challenge and community benefit! Competing for a greater good is a highly rewarding experience.
Call to Action
JOIN THE TEAM! COVCA has complimentary entries to the Epic Races Tri Goddess Triathlon, or all new trail run, available for those willing to assist in the team mission. This is the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself at one of the most friendly and fun triathlons in the state. TGT is perfect for beginners and experienced racers, and those searching for a supportive and welcoming atmosphere. If you would like to be part of this great community, or would like a free or discounted entry, just NOTIFY us and we will get you on the team!

All abilities are welcome and the workouts are written to be adjusted to each runner’s individual needs. They are time based intervals or hills that aim to leave no runner behind. Whether you are training for a sprint tri race series or this year’s late summer DXA2 run, or even a fall marathon, you can benefit from this training. Workouts are based at a local track or hill and start from AARC at 6pm. This allows runners to bring along a drink and drop it at the workout location. Please note that AARC closes at 6pm. Each runner is responsible for assessing their fitness and readiness to participate. Each runner is responsible for choosing their own workout and understanding the risks associated with demanding physical activity. This information is available for runners to help themselves, no prescription is intended.
