Rufus Racing, LLC is based in Joplin, MO and is an endurance sports event management company that produces high quality events in the fours state area. All events are associated with corresponding national governing body (USA Triathlon, USA Cycling, USA Track and Field, US Adventure Racing Association). This insures a safe and quality race and also gives participants an opportunity to be ranked on a national level against other age group amateurs.
Rufus Racing also is home to an endurance sports racing team: triathlon, running, cycling, and other endurance sport events. Team membership is around 200 athletes.
Where did the name Rufus Racing come from? Rufus has been my nickname since college (however when I'm coaching the team prefers to call me Ruthless) so when we get to meet feel free to use one of my "other" names.
My background- I'm a graduate of Missouri Southern State University with a degree in Health Promotion/ Wellness and a minor in management. I started racing triathlon as a junior in HS in 2000. I was 25 years old and a brand new mom when I started Rufus Racing. I remember sitting on the floor in our living room on the laptop and used some of my Christmas money to register my business and buy my DBA. That was January 11, 2009.
My main passion is to introduce people to endurance sports. I know you can do this and I'm here to help you!
I'd love to meet you! Come introduce yourself, send me an email, FB message me.
I guarantee when you come do a Rufus Racing event, you'll get my best every time! Happy Racing!
