our strengths
We own/operate our own premium events and races. Heartland Racing Co. events can be expected to exceed norms, be a positive experience, and totally fun memory.
|
Events need knowledgable and competent staff in key positions leading up to the event, supporting it, and executing it. This is something we excel at.
|
Accurate timing for a race is a must. Not all race timers are the same. When things go sideways, you need an excellent problem solver at the helm. We've got you covered.
|
We boast an incredible in house graphic designer and graphic artist. People judge a book and race by the cover. You've got to wow them or it'll be tough to pull in a crowd.

Our four cornerstones
God: We strive to point everything we do back to God. Everything we have is due to Gods grace, mercy, and generosity. At any of our events you will find loving and helpful Heartland Racing Co. staff invigorated by the life God has given us.
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us" Hebrews 12:1
Country: We live and were born in a country where most things are taken for granted. Heartland Racing Co. does not take for granted what our brave men and women fight daily to protect for us. We thank all service men and women, current and past. At all Heartland Racing Co. events you will see us displaying the American Flag proudly.
Multisport: Our owner grew up swimming, biking, and running, which later transformed into an exciting Triathlon career. All of our events that we produce or time are related to one or more of the three principles that make up a Triathlon. We love to branch out with what constitutes a traditional endurance event as well.
And Family: You will notice that a few of our team below all have the same last name. Our business is a family business. If you ever work for us, volunteer for us, or race with and/or for us... you are part of the Heartland Racing Co. Family.
