Getting 2 Tri

Formed in 2006 and headquartered in Atlanta, Ga., The Getting2Tri Foundation (G2T) is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization that provides coaching, training and mentoring to physically-challenged (PC) athletes in the sports of swimming, running, cycling and triathlon. Specifically, we address the needs of individuals with limb loss, paralysis, muscular or neurological disorders and create a unique community of support.

We create grass-roots communities at the local level where individuals with a disability can integrate with running, swimming or cycling clubs, or triathlon clubs and certain civic organizations in support of our mission.

• G2T connects physically challenged athletes with able-bodied athletes or other PC athletes through a unique mentoring and coaching partnership through chapters at the local level
• G2T supports wounded war veterans and non-military amputees with programs to regain self-esteem and integration into their communities
• G2T raises the awareness of the PC community; reduces barriers between able-bodied athletes and PC athletes
• G2T allows for the integration of mixed relay teams, PC athletes paired with able-bodied athletes on the same team, as well as promotes PC athletes completing races as individuals
• G2T provides information and resources for race directors to assist with the needs of PC athletes

Getting2Tri’s Mission

Our mission is to provide services and programs that assist PC athletes with their athletic pursuits, create communities of support and reduce perceived barriers between people.
