Neways Launches Annual Maui Marathon
SPRINGVILLE, Utah-(Business Wire)-February 3, 2009 - Officially known as the Neways Maui Paradise Marathon, Neways’ first-ever headline-sponsored athletic event took place in Maui, Hawaii, on January 11, with hundreds participating in the full and half marathons, including several independent Neways distributors from Japan and North America.
“Running along the ocean as the sun rose over the Pacific is something I will never forget,” said Neways, Inc. President and COO Brian Slobodow, who took third place for his age group in the half-marathon. “A special thanks to all the great event volunteers who made it such a success. Given the event’s success in its first year and Neways’ commitment to continue as title sponsor, we expect a much larger group in 2010, and we’re confident this marathon will develop into a prestigious international event.”
According to Neways North America managing director Thierry Sorhaitz, who took ninth place overall in the full marathon, “This Maui marathon provides the perfect opportunity for Neways, a company with the mission to offer safe and effective products, to sponsor an event with a healthy, environmentally friendly focus. It gives our distributors a great opportunity to set fitness goals for themselves and meet up in Hawaii for a chance to learn, share, and have fun. The inaugural race was a great success, and many more people will want to join us next year.”
“We had fantastic support from our distributors who volunteered at the event,” said Neways director of global sales John Gappmayer. “Nobody cheered louder than our Japanese distributors, who were congratulating each runner as he or she came across the finish line. Their enthusiasm and effort helped make the first-ever Neways Maui Paradise Marathon a big success.”
“Traveling the world was one of the main reasons we got into this business,” said Neways independent distributor Dimitri Nosarev, who won a trip to the Maui event. “When we heard about the trip to Hawaii, it motivated us to shift our business into high gear. Maui is absolutely gorgeous—romantic and relaxing! Aloha!”
Next year’s Neways Maui Paradise Marathon is scheduled for January 10, 2010. For details, visit www.NewaysMauiParadiseMarathon.com.
