USA Triathlon’s fourth annual Endurance Exchange presented by BOA Nutrition, an industry-wide conference for endurance sports athletes and professionals, will be held in person on January 23-26, 2023, in Austin, Texas.
“This year will feature hands-on, practical experiences and workshops where you will learn by doing,” said Earl Walton, USA Triathlon Director of Education.
“We want you to roll up your sleeves and get elbow to elbow with folks from across our sport who want 2023 to be a breakout year for multisport.”
He continued, “It has been incredible to see the enthusiasm of the experts stepping forward to lead this conference. Whether it’s learning the proper ‘cues’ to drive you to your athletic goals or workshopping your next steps as a small business you will leave this conference energized for the season ahead.”
A release from USA Triathlon added… ‘After two years of being held virtually, the 2023 edition of Endurance Exchange returns fully in-person next January, offering attendees the best educational and networking opportunities in the industry, all taking place in Austin, Texas, the Live Music Capital of the World.
‘Endurance Exchange annually brings together endurance sports industry stakeholders – including race directors, coaches, athletes, club leaders, officials, retailers and medical professionals – for several packed days of hands-on learning, sharing best practices, networking and collaboration.
‘The event is open not only to those involved in the business of triathlon, but also to multisport enthusiasts of all types as specific athlete-focused sessions will cater to all skill and experience levels. The virtual event in January of this year drew more than 1,000 attendees, including race directors, coaches, club leaders, athletes, officials, brands and retailers, medical professionals, and others.’
Registration for the 2023 event is open at enduranceexchange.com. Now through December 1, USA Triathlon Certified Coaches and Race Directors will receive US$200 off the entry fee. Coaches and race directors in attendance will gain 12 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to further their professional development.
In addition to having access to all sessions, expo and networking happy hours, attendees will be able to access all recorded sessions on-demand until December 31, 2023.
With more than 30 live sessions presented by coaches, race directors and industry professionals, Endurance Exchange will feature a mix of workshops and lectures… ‘to educate athletes, coaches, race directors and more members of the multisport community.’
Live session topics include: Defining Threshold Modalities for Cycling, Digital Marketing, Sustainability Best Practices, Underwater Video Analysis and a State of the Sport report. Each day of the conference begins with a roundtable breakfast.
The 2023 edition of Endurance Exchange will also include the Race Director Summit, a day dedicated exclusively for race directors (on January 24). Here, race directors can network and learn via sessions — including medical, safety and business planning. Race director-specific content includes: Pricing and Economics, Maximizing Local Partners and Day in the Life: Crisis Management.
Taking place at the Austin Convention Center, Endurance Exchange will also feature an expo showcasing the new products, innovations and brands in the endurance sports community. Attendees are encouraged to book their lodging through USA Triathlon’s partner hotels at the Hilton Austin and Hilton Garden Inn Austin.
For the fourth year, USA Triathlon is offering a limited number of Together We Thrive Endurance Exchange scholarships. These aim to foster diversity and bring varied perspectives to the event. Interested candidates may apply online. Priority will be given to people of racial and ethnic minorities, women, and those who may not otherwise be able to attend due to financial constraints.
