The U.S. Multi-Sport Directory, now in it’s fourth edition, is an excellent resource for passionate athletes looking to stay fit and have some extra fun on their next road trip or vacation.
The popular publication, co-authored by triathletes Warren Knoll and Hubie Krawczyk, offers 260 pages of event listings and other helpful information for endurance athletes. It is color-coded and organized by region (ex. - Pacific, Northeast, International, etc.); listing the pertinent information for a majority of the year’s triathlons, duathlons, marathons, ultra marathons, adventure races and cycling events.
The authors have also compiled listings of running camps, coaches, clinics, new products and even some tips for race directors. Future editions would benefit from the inclusion of additional race information (course descriptions, amenities, etc.), such as the the details offered about running routes in Fun on Foot in America’s Cities.
Although there are a plethora of online event calendars, the U.S. Multi-Sport Directory offers athletes a low-tech, portable, very inexpensive (only $7.95), reliable and convenient resource. It is also an excellent option and/or gift for active families planning an extended vacation and the countless teenagers & twenty-somethings set to embark on that “once-of-a-lifetime” summer road tip.
