The Pleasant Prairie Triathlon announced June 30 that Running Away Multisport, located at 1634 W. North Avenue, Chicago, is partnering with the Pleasant Prairie Triathlon as its newest Presenting Run Sponsor. Lauren Jensen, professional triathlete, is back as the event's spokesperson and training expert, and Team World Vision joins the event as a new organizational sponsor.

To continue Pleasant Prairie's reputation for giving out the best goodie bag in the Midwest, Running Away will be providing mesh training caps to all racers at the finish line. They are also working with race organizers to supply the event with their new "tri gear bag giveaway," as well as upgraded dri-fit style participant t-shirts.

"It's a technically solid course and an event that offers an outstanding, overall experience for the athletes," says Cathi Klaver, Pleasant Prairie Triathlon Committee Chair. "This includes the importance of developing new sponsor partnerships that enhance the value and quality of the event. This is exactly what Running Away provides."

Team World Vision is an organization that empowers athletes to use their event to raise funds for the world's most vulnerable children, especially those living in Africa who are impacted and affected by AIDS. To learn more, visit www.worldvision.org/chicagoteam.

Net Proceeds from this event support the Village of Pleasant Prairie's Therapeutic Recreation Program that serves adults and children with disabilities.
