ZapEvent, a leading online registration provider for athletic events, has partnered with Life Time Fitness as the exclusive online registration provider for the 2011 Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon.
As Minnesota’s premier triathlon, Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon celebrates its 10th Anniversary in 2011. This iconic event features one of the most beautiful urban swim/bike/run courses in the United States.
The fourth stop in the triathlon series Race to the Toyota Cup, the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon attracts both amateur and pro athletes from around the world.
On 9 July 2011 the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon will be a fun filled, challenging day with races for beginners, age-groupers and professionals. With over 3,000 registrants, the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon consistently proves its place as one of America’s top urban triathlons.
Dave Schutz, Race Director for the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon said, “I am thrilled to partner with ZapEvent. In an increasingly crowded regional and national events landscape, it’s important to partner with companies that not only provide efficient and affordable services for our participants, but also go above and beyond when it comes to customer service.
“It’s here that ZapEvent truly fires on all cylinders. If there’s an issue, they are often on top of it before I even bring it to their attention. If there’s an opportunity to offer enhanced service for our participants, they’re the ones pitching me on the idea.
“They make the registration side of my job very easy. And, as we look to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of this iconic Twin Cities tradition – the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon – it feels especially good to partner with a Minneapolis-based company.”
Jeff Wedren, President of ZapEvent, added "It is our core mission to make the online registration process easier for both the Race Director and their registrants. In working with the Life Time Minneapolis Triathlon, we have an opportunity to take a fairly complex event and provide a very user-friendly experience while maintaining Life Time Fitness’ business objectives.
“With our software and customer service working in tandem, Dave and the Life Time team can focus on continuing the tradition of putting on a marquee event. Partnering with a fantastic company like Life Time Fitness on an event that takes place in our backyard is simply the cherry on top. We are excited to be a part of this local tradition that has a national presence.”
