Prima’s Fourth-Annual Virtual Triathlon a Swimming (and Biking, Running, and Walking) Success

Kalamazoo, MI, September 17, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Prima Communications, Inc.’s annual virtual triathlon recently wrapped up its fourth year. During the month of August, participating employees submitted their swimming, biking, walking, running, and even inline skating miles to be tallied and recorded for prizes at the completion of the race. Mileage was used to virtually “travel” a 2,684-mile loop across the country, beginning in Lansing and ending in Portage, Michigan. The route included stops along the way to “visit” a variety of client locations in Michigan, Indiana, New Jersey, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, as well as tourist attractions.

Prizes for the top finishers in each category will be awarded at Prima’s annual fall meeting. Participants were also encouraged to donate blood at the completion of the race.

Owner and CEO of Prima, Charlotte Hubbard, said, “While we have a variety of prizes, the real winners are all the employees who integrated fitness into their daily routines. Many employees also involved their families in this month of increased exercise; the benefits are far-reaching.”
