The Festival Foods La Crosse Fitness Festival would be nothing without you, the athlete. Whether it’s your first 5K or your tenth marathon, crossing that finish line on race day is a pretty amazing accomplishment. Because we think you’re awesome, we want to put the spotlight on you and all the hard work you’ve done!

Do you love your sport and have a great story to share? Do you prefer to cheer from the sidelines, but know of a runner/ walker/ biker who deserves some recognition? Write in and tell us about it! Training is just as much a mental battle as it is a physical one, and sometimes a little extra inspiration is all we need to keep going. So not only can you be recognized for your commitment, but you could also serve as an inspiration to others! Some of the things we want to know are why you love your sport, how dedicated you are to it, what keeps you motivated, who inspires you, and what obstacles you’ve had to overcome. The downloadable essay form has some ideas to get you started. All you have to do is fill it out, attach your story, and send it back to us. Easy!

Stories will be shared throughout February, March, and April. Select entries will be posted to the website and may also be used in our e-mail newsletters, media outreach strategies, and the event Facebook page. In April, we will give you folks the chance to award a Fitness Fest prize package to a person featured in one of the Spotlight stories! So even if you don’t have a story of your own to share, stay tuned, because you can still help us pick a winner!
