La Sportiva and GoLite Launch New Website for All Things Trail Running

The La Sportiva/GoLite Mountain Running Team launched their new website today, MountainRunningTeam.com.

The new site serves as an information source for the entire running community as well as a gathering place for runners, aspiring runners, and fans alike. Produced in a magazine format, MountainRunningTeam.com provides an in-depth look at the fast-growing and exciting sport of trail and mountain running.

MountainRunningTeam.com has everything from extensive lists of key upcoming events in their Calendar section, to motivating athlete profiles in their Team section. Up-to-date reports on all the latest trail racing news from around the country can be found in the new website’s News section, and the Features section offers in-depth analysis of racing around the country and trends in the trail running world—all from top-notch experts and athletes.

The site also has news, links and updates on many of the La Sportiva/GoLite-sponsored racing series including the Front Range Frenzy, Trail Runner Trophy Series, and the New England Mountain Circuit, as well as major events like the Mt. Washington Hill Climb and the Boulder Backroads Marathon.

“This should be a great asset for trail runners everywhere,” said La Sportiva/GoLite Team Manager Buzz Burrell. “MountainRunning Team.com is more than just a listing of race results; it provides insight into the thoughts and experiences of other runners. I found it really, really interesting reading!”
