Our Mission:
Mission Statement:
Team Pack a Lunch unites organizations, athletes, and communities to empower people of all abilities to participate fully in adaptive endurance sports.
Through collaboration, resources, and unwavering support, we break down barriers, foster inclusion, and create life-changing opportunities in running, triathlons, wheelchair football, and beyond—proving that every athlete belongs at the starting line.
With our network of partners we can provide the opportunity for any adaptive athlete to enjoy extreme adventures.
But “you better pack a lunch, because it’s gonna be a while”
We have room at the Lunch Table for you!
The meaning behind the name:
"You better Pack a lunch, it's gonna be a while!"
For years now we have been participating in events together as every day people; not competing for an individual place on a podium, rather, a place in the hearts of the athletes who could not start or finish these event on their own.
We take the time on the course to: laugh, stop and take pictures, dance to the music and not take the race of life seriously.
