Starting a business

rossdavey2

So I haven't really said anything about this, but I am starting a race management company. We got the last of the money we need to get going today and Edward Jones is going to sponsor the first race series in GA. We will be putting on between 8 and 10 races over the next year. A 5 or 10K and will be raising money for local charities where the races are held.

We are starting with planning and running fund raisers for local charities. So 5k and 10k road races. We plan once have have built a good base with these to move into longer runs, tri's, and trail runs.

Good luck. Owning and running your own business it very rewarding.

Congrats on the new business, brother. I'm in the process of trying to get two business started, myself. The first one is a motorcycle shop with a part of all profit being donated to charities and the other is a private sector security/survailance company. Hope everything works out and the business blossoms.
