10 Million-Member Community Spartan Joins Run Show USA Expo in Boston, Jan. 29-30, 2022
The Run Show USA, the inaugural consumer running exposition scheduled Jan. 29-30, 2022, at Boston's Hynes Convention Center, today announced that Spartan, the world's leading endurance sports and wellness brand, will become an official event sponsor.
BOSTON, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The two-day expo will feature indoor Spartan activations and a presentation by Spartan founder and CEO Joe De Sena who is dedicated to transforming 100 million people through adherence to the Spartan lifestyle.
Spartan representatives will help runners young and old learn how to participate in Spartan Trail Races, including the recently announced Golden Gate Trail Classic; Spartan Kids programs; Spartan-owned Tough Mudder competitions; and Spartan DEKAFIT – a decathlon of 10 functional fitness zones and three competitions designed for all levels.
Official Spartan merchandise will be sold from their expo booth.
New York Times bestselling author Joe De Sena has written several books: The Spartan Way, Spartan Up, and Spartan Fit. A prolific podcaster, he's driven by the vision to get 100 million people healthy and off the couch, get Obstacle Course Racing (OCR) recognized as an Olympic Sport, and guide kids towards teamwork, leadership and healthy lifestyles.
"There's never been a consumer running event quite like this, coming at a time when running and the whole endurance industry will surely experience explosive growth," said De Sena.
Adds Mike Seaman, CEO of show organizer Raccoon Events based in Surrey, England, "For the past 14 years, Spartan has proven that running isn't necessarily a physical activity practiced in a straight line. As Joe will demonstrate at Run Show USA, the pastime involves numerous challenges that help active people prepare for the twists and turns of life itself and we are delighted that they will be joining us at Run Show USA, helping us provide a truly inspiring and interactive experience for visitors."
