Our History

VirtualSportsRacing was founded by a team of experienced athletes and tech professionals including a U.S. national champion and one of the pioneers of the sport of triathlon. We know nothing beats the experience of race day and saw an opportunity to open up and extend the participant journey to incorporate virtual race experiences which can be completed anytime, anywhere.

By working in close conjunction with event organizers, brands and causes, our goal is to promote an ongoing, healthy lifestyle for all participants while helping these organizations fuel their member-driven and purpose-driven objectives.
