During the early days of schooling, some of us may recall running the mile (or 1,500 meter/1,600 meter run). For a good portion of us, it was humiliating to see those few sporty students sprinting around the track like it was no big deal; and that may have turned us away from running entirely. But that’s what puts Run Tri Bike at the forefront of endurance sports, as they emphasize that there is a spot at the starting line for everybody and everybody.
ALLMYNE: Hello, Jason! Thank you for taking some time to chat with us about Run Tri Bike!
Jason: It’s no problem at all. We’re excited to be working with ALLMYNE in preparation for the Run Club Tour.
ALLMYNE: So before we get into that, your mission of proving that there is a spot at the starting line for everybody and every body by showing everyday athletes overcoming obstacles to reach their finish lines is absolutely incredible. My father was a track star, and my attempt at running has definitely put that legacy to shame!
Jason: And that’s what Run Tri Bike is about, embracing the fun, excitement, and personal growth that these sports have to offer, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, or physical abilities. We aim to break down these barriers of “I’m just not a runner” through inspiring stories of athletes from diverse backgrounds.
ALLMYNE: Now, you yourself are a runner, right?
Jason: I am!
ALLMYNE: And something that some athletes experience is DNF, meaning Did Not Finish, which could be a deterrent to athletes just starting out. How does Run Tri Bike overcome those sorts of obstacles in particular?
Jason: That’s a good question. I have been running for almost 20 years now and have actually DNFd on a couple of the races I’ve done!
ALLMYNE: Oh, wow! I would have never expected that!
Jason: So I think being transparent with our viewers that anyone at any point in their running career can have a time where they can’t finish a race is super helpful for people afraid of not being able to meet that goal. We want people to find the fun in endurance sports no matter how far they get!
ALLMYNE: That’s really admirable, especially with fitness being a huge focus on social media right now with gym influencers and routine trends that don’t work for every type of body. So back to the Run Club Tour, tell us more about that.
Jason: The Run Club Tour is where we are visiting 6 cities in 7 months to run with everyday athletes across the country. These meetups are meant to connect us with other runners and build a community that is unmatched because we don’t gatekeep distances or paces.
ALLMYNE: As a company of travelers, this is something that is really exciting! What other projects does Run Tri Bike have going on right now?
Jason: Well, we have our Everyday Athlete Podcast Network with various shows where we are chatting with everyday athletes about their obstacles, victories, and setbacks, while showing them in a way that allows others to be inspired by them.
ALLMYNE: I got a chance to check out the podcast, and it even inspired me to lace up my sneakers!
Jason: That’s great! That’s what we want! We also have our Odd Duck Running Co. We put events under that name.
ALLMYNE: Odd duck running sounds like what it looks like when I’m running, so I’m intrigued.
Jason: It’s very similar to our other initiatives. Our goal is to provide a supportive space where everybody can come as they are, race, and have a good time while doing hard things.
ALLMYNE: With such a wonderful, personal connection with your audience, you have to have some success stories you’re proud of. Care to share?
Jason: Of course! We launched the Everyday Athlete Clubhouse in August of 2025, and over the course of the last 10 months, we have seen the Clubhouse welcome about 150 members! But beyond that, the support that the members have shown each other is unmeasurable.
For example, this week one of our members from Colorado was in Northern Kentucky. She met up with another member there and went for a run, plus received various dinner recommendations.
Other organizations will talk about community. We are doing it, and this is just one example that puts a smile on the faces of our leadership team.
ALLMYNE: Understandably so! And ALLMYNE really aligns with that idea of bringing people together, whether it be through international travel or—in this case—running! What’s the year look like for Run Tri Bike with this tour going on?
Jason: We are going to be on the Run Club Tour until October 10th. We will be in San Francisco for the San Francisco Marathon on July 26th followed by a trip to Seattle on September 12th for Beat The Blerch. The last stop of the run club tour is on October 10th at Hustle in the Heartland in Lebanon, IN just outside of Indianapolis. This is our last stop and is one of our own events being hosted by race director, Joe Hardin.
And the last part of the entire year will be a meetup in New York City for the NYC Marathon. We will host roughly 20 members of the Everyday Athlete Clubhouse and provide them with swag, networking, laughs, smiles, and coffees.
ALLMYNE: That all sounds super exciting! Before we let you go, is there anything else you’d like to share?
Jason: Just that our organization is founded on the principle of inclusion. All everyday athletes are welcome to join us and enjoy the benefits of endurance sports while celebrating all of our achievements.
ALLMYNE: Perfect! And with that, we’d like to thank you for partnering with us!
Jason: As do we! We look forward to bringing endurance sports into the ALLMYNE space.
