The 2007 Road Race Management Directory is an unparalleled single resource for the distance running world. In a single volume, users can find elite athletes, agents, event listings with prize money structures, expo information, race director contacts, running businesses from apparel companies through writers, and all of the sport's organizations.

The Road Race Management Directory continues to enjoy overwhelming success from both users and advertisers. Work is now underway on the 2007 edition.

Purchasers tell us that they consult the Directory countless times over the course of the year. This means advertisers benefit as their ads are viewed repeatedly by the key players in the sport of long distance running including race directors, athletes, agents, running clubs, and organization and business leaders. Race advertisers reap the additional benefit of being able to spread the word about either their prize money or their expos - or both -- in a single ad.

Here’s a sampling of what past advertisers have said:

"[The Directory] is truly the bible of the sport. All your hard work really shows." 
    – Mike Reilly, Vice President National Sales, Active.com

"Your new publication is stunning."
   – Henley Gabeau, former Executive Director, RRCA

"I’m thrilled to be part of it."
   – Mitch Massey, Director, Heritage Oaks Family Fun Day and Fun Run

Once again, Directory advertisers receive a potent combination of print and on-line exposure for their event, product or service. All advertisers receive a logo link to their website from the popular "Unabridged Links" section of Road Race Management's webpage (www.rrm.com/sites/sites.html).

Finally, all advertisers receive a complementary copy of the Directory (a $135 value).

The Road Race Management Directory will be offered for sale at $135 per copy with an athlete discount price of $85 (pre-publication prices are $125 and $75 respectively). We will begin 2007 distribution by March 1, 2007. (Advertising on covers, section divider tabs, and special positions normally sell quickly so don't delay).
