Race Montana, Inc. was originally developed by a group of athletic enthusiasts and race directors who were interested in promoting fitness to individuals and groups throughout central Montana. We started out with the idea we would organize events in a logical fashion throughout the year to allow maximal participation at each event. Over time, several race directors decided to discontinue promoting and organizing a number of their events on our race calendar.

The prospect of not having these events in the region prompted several of us on the board to move into a race directing role. In 2011 Race Montana put on the Harvest Thunder Triathlon. In 2012 we changed the name of the triathlon to the Race Montana Triathlon. We then took on the Kickin’Half Marathon and 10K, Save the Ta Ta’s 5K and Burn the Bird 5K and 10K. Later we took over the Wolf Creek Canyon Relay from Carl Clark.

In July 2014, after efforts from multiple individuals, most notably, Gary Bjelland, Esq. we received our tax exempt status as a 501(c)3.
