ARE...YOU...READY???

We are excited to begin planning for the Twin Cities Marathon Weekend races and would LOVE to invite you to participate with myTEAM TRIUMPH–Minnesota!

Twin Cities Marathon Weekend
Dates: Saturday, Oct. 3rd and Sunday, Oct. 4th
Location: Minneapolis & St. Paul
Distances Offered: 5K and 10K (Sat. Oct. 3rd) and 10 Mile and Marathon (Sun. Oct. 4th)

If you are interested in running with us, please email me (Jeff) and let me know which distance(s) you are interested in. You may request more than one distance, and we will do our best to accommodate preferences when forming teams. Please remember, if you are an Angel and sign up to run with us, there is a fundraising expectation.

It’s also possible that you have already let us know you were interested in running one of the races. Please still email me to confirm your participation so we can be sure you are officially signed up to run with myTEAMTRIUMPH–Minnesota. We will need to hear from Captains and Angels individually expressing interest but if you would like to be paired with someone you know please also let us know in your reply.

We will reach back out very shortly to confirm teams and start providing registration details. In the meantime, you can also keep up to date with all information on our Facebook and Instagram social media pages.

Thank you for being part of our community and for helping make these racing experiences possible. We truly appreciate your willingness to run with purpose and inclusion.

Reach out with any questions you may have!

Your bumper counts.

Parking with your car over the sidewalk isn’t “close enough.”
It’s encroachment. And it’s dangerous.

That extra foot of hood?
It blocks wheelchairs.
It forces strollers into the street.
It turns a blind cane user’s safe path into a collision.

If your vehicle hangs over the line, it’s on the sidewalk.
And that means you’ve put a wall where there should be access.

Pull up. Back in. Re-park.
But do not encroach.

Clear the walk. Every inch matters.

Happy Birthday to the ADA!!!
✨🎂✨

Image description: a commemorative graphic celebrating the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The background is a muted gray-green color with large white text at the top reading, “Happy Birthday to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)!”

Below, a rounded mint-green text box states: “The ADA was signed into law on July 26, 1990 by President George H.W. Bush, who declared, ‘Let the shameful wall of exclusion finally come tumbling down.’ Today, we commemorate the passage of this legislation each Disability Pride Month in July.”

The lower half of the image features a historic photograph of the ADA signing ceremony held outdoors in Washington, D.C. President George H.W. Bush sits at a small desk signing the legislation while disability rights advocates and supporters stand or sit nearby. Two individuals using wheelchairs are prominently positioned on either side of the president, emphasizing the role of the disability community in this landmark moment. In the distance, the Jefferson Memorial is visible, framed by trees and a crowd gathered to witness the event.

Along the right edge of the graphic, the creator’s handle, “,” appears vertically in white text.
