Formed in 2006, the organization provides coaching, mentoring and training in the sports of running, swimming, cycling to physically-challenged individuals. Specifically, G2T addresses the needs of individuals with limb loss, paralysis, muscular or neurological disorders. G2T athletes range from single sport members entering their first race as part of a relay team to seasoned triathletes competing in Kona at the Ironman World Championships. The backgrounds of physically-challenged athletes are just as varied as their goals, from wounded veterans to people with limb loss due to disease. For each athlete, G2T’s focus is the same: to move them back onto the playing field, at whatever level is their best.

Getting2Tri believes that individuals with a disability deserve the inspiration, support and opportunity to participate in athletic endeavors that promote healthy, active lifestyles. Our mission is to provide services and programs through the sports of swimming, cycling, and running to align physically-challenged individuals with their athletic pursuits, create communities for knowledge sharing, and reduce the perceived barriers between people.
