Discover Whitewater Series Announces New Half Marathon Teams Awards Sponsor

 

The Discover Whitewater Series (DWS): Half Marathon, Half Marathon Team Event, 5k, and W3 Fit Kid Shuffle is excited to announce that Performance Running Outfitters is the new Half Teams Award Sponsor for the 11th Annual DWS. 

The 11th annual DWS will be held on Sunday, September 17th, 2023. The DWS team has rolled out a new addition to the Half Marathon Team Event. Each team will consist of four participants (all women, all men, or co-ed: two women and two men) competing for the best combined half marathon finishing time. 

The top three teams will receive one of the amazing DWS trophies designed by Amaya Phillippi and a gift certificate to Performance Running Outfitters. Performance Running Outfitters has been a sponsor of the race in the past and are excited to contribute to the new Half Marathon Teams Event this year. 

“The Team Event for the Half Marathon brings a new competitive element to the race this year” said DWS Executive Director, Jeffery Knight, “We are excited to have Performance Running Outfitters sponsor the Team Awards and can’t wait to see the community come together for race day.” 

As the 11th Annual DWS gets closer the DWS Team Leaders are putting their final touches on for another amazing race. Be sure to look around Whitewater for all of the DWS signs and banners. With the generous help from sponsors the DWS is able to give back to the community and put on a premier running event for the city.
