GMTM and USA Triathlon – Connecting High School Aged Kids to the World of Collegiate Triathlon #
In a dynamic collaboration aimed at boosting collegiate triathlon, USA Triathlon joined forces with GMTM three years ago to take their mission to new heights. In this timeframe, partnership has been exploring innovative ways to support the growth of triathlon at the collegiate level. There have been high school challenges, combine week, and movements to make GMTM the landing page for athletes wishing to be recruited by college coaches at the club and NCAA levels.
Engaging in this no cost platform is easy. Compete a 100 meter/yard swim in a pool and a 1600 meter run and go to gmtm.com and enter your details. As you get faster you can record your new times. You can also record times for other distances. In addition, you can upload video – perhaps of you speaking about your goals or perhaps you swimming in a pool. The opportunity to make this your landing page for all things is there at this one location.
As the collegiate triathlon scene continues to flourish, GMTM and USA Triathlon remain committed to connecting athletes with a wealth of opportunities. Their shared mission extends beyond promoting the sport; it is about linking athletes to coaches, programs, resources, and, most importantly, to each other.
