RTB's Story...
2017
RTB’s team started as a group of 7 elite women in 2003 and grew to a current roster of 200+. While our results show a fair number of age-group placings and overall race wins, we’re most proud of the fact that we are a team of diverse abilities and experiences. Everyone has a place on this team.
Shortly after the team began, we started training programs - coached swim workouts, group triathlon workouts, camps, clinics, etc. And in 2008 our event production began with XTERRA Black Diamond - ranked the #1 XTERRA in the nation in 2009. Every summer since then, we present a few triathlons and open water swims. We also help at other events offering Chip Timing, Equipment Rental, and Event Direction.
Our priority and joy is the people who we run around with every day in the Multisport Playground. We take our commitment to them very seriously and work very hard to offer benefits, opportunities, and programs that will make their experience the best one possible. Because when athletes are given a positive community, information, and support, they bring a better person back to their families, friends, and employers…..and that’s what’s most important.
