introductionCompetitor Magazine was created in 1987 – and from the very beginning the idea was to work in conjunction with our event, retail and national clients to grow the sports of running, triathlon, cycling, mountain biking and adventure. The idea is to educate, motivate and inspire our readers through great editorial and awesome photography to embrace the endurance sports lifestyle.
company taglineLive For Fitness…Fitness For Life
our readerIs a highly educated, highly motivated professional who loves being involved in endurance sports. Running, cycling and adventure are not only a way to stay fit and healthy, but also a way to spend time with people who share the same passion and interests. Competitor Magazine has become the voice of authority in Texas, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Washington and California for this goal oriented-group. They have the desire to change their lives through endurance sports and the discretionary income to support that lifestyle.
The Magazine for the Active Athlete
letter from the publisherCompetitor Magazine is all about YOU and has been for the past 22 years. In each issue we look to motivate, educate and inspire our readers with articles that give them the tools to change their lives forever. For some it’s losing 50 pounds and walking that first 5K. For others it’s getting ready for a triathlon, a marathon, a century bike ride or something totally off-the-wall like Muddy Buddy. Over the past two decades, Competitor has become the nation’s local voice of authority in every single one of our markets. We’re all about teaching our readers how to swim, how to bike, how to run, how to train, how to race, and most importantly, how to make a difference in their lives and in the lives of others. If you are looking to reach the most passionate and dedicated readers on the planet, Competitor Magazine is the place to be.
Here’s to an awesome 2009!
