Team "Tri Ing To Raise Money For our Grunts!" was formed for .... you guessed it .. raising money to help support the most forward deployed Marines serving in some of the most austere locations in a unique and gratifying way. Our goal is to have a Team "Tri ing to Raise Money For Our Grunts!" member in every state so, PLEASE pass along this site to every athlete you know.Dianne Villano, founder of "Support Our Marines, Inc." competed in her first sprint triathlon ever in August of 08 ... in over 20 pounds of the field gear that our heroes wear while forward deployed. She finished 58/68 in the novice division with a 9.45 swim, 40.41 bike (with 30 pounds) and 39.26 run (with 22 pounds). Pictures from all 2008 - 2010 races and race schedule can be found on our Facebook Team page http://www.facebook.com/pages/Team-Tri-ing-To-Raise-Money-For-Our-Grunts/51475285527
What started as an effort to send a humble one time "thank - you" to our heroes in harm's way has turned into a full on adventure to continue on.
