La Sportiva N.A., makers of technical climbing, mountaineering, Mountain Running and hiking footwear, announces its Mountain Running team roster and associate sponsors for 2010.
Supporting the La Sportiva Mountain Running team is one of many ways in which we aim to improve the vitality of the sport, says Laura Fryer, La Sportiva s Marketing Manager. Ever since our Mountain Running team s inception in 2003, our goal has been to provide a network of support to regional race directors, volunteers, talented athletes and quality races throughout North America. We are very grateful for the assistance that our associate sponsors will be providing in 2010, as this mission would be impossible without their help. La Sportiva s running team roster includes over 25 athletes from around North America and includes such ultrarunning notables as Karl Meltzer, Luke Nelson, Leor Pantilat as well as the 2009 La Sportiva Mountain Cup Champions Matthew Byrne and Megan Kimmel. New additions to the La Sportiva team for 2010 include Andy Jones-Wilkins of Ketchum, Idaho, Nathan Yanko of San Francisco, CA, Ellen Parker of Seattle, WA, and Natalie Simms of Chattanooga, TN.
Gear will also be provided to 2010 team from Julbo, Headsweats, and Defeet. These Associate Sponsors are key members of the La Sportiva Team by supporting each member and providing the items they need to hit the trails, race hard and do their very best all season long.
