Race Managers:

We are gathering data from runners, regarding the importance of certified race courses to the runner. If you have a newsletter or e-letter, we would appreciate you including a short note to runners, inviting them to complete a brief questionnaire regarding Race Course Certification. If you include the following paragraph in your newsletter/e-letter, please email us at info@RaceMeasure.com so we can share the results with you. We are not gathering personal information, just statistically-pertinent information (age, gender, city, state, and questions regarding certified courses). We are trying to measure the awareness, and importance, of USATF Certification for road races of all lengths. Your assistance is greatly appreciated!

Here is the paragraph we would like you to include in your newsletter:

"Runners - we would like to get your opinions regarding the importance of certified race courses to you, the runner. If you would take a couple of minutes to go to RaceMeasure.com (http://RaceMeasure.com/Questionnaire) and complete the brief (7 questions) questionnaire, we would appreciate it. Whether you know what USATF Certification is, or not, your response will be valuable. Thank you for your time."

Any runner reading this is welcome to follow the link from here, instead of waiting for a newsletter.

Thanks for your help. I will share results here, when I have sufficient responses, in addition to sending them directly to those who assist us by placing the request in their newsletter. But, if no one puts it in their newsletter, there will be no results.

Again, thanks!
