Treat PR starts with a single step out the door.
After years of identifying as a “non-runner,” our founder Meg Treat downloaded a Couch to 5K app one day, hit start, and strode toward destiny. Just eighteen months after that first run, Meg completed her first marathon and has never looked back. Since then, running has been a constant throughout her journey and races have been mileposts that mark life’s milestones.
Running and endurance events are where she learned that anything was possible, and she made it her mission to help more people experience the life-changing experience of stepping up to the starting line and reaching the finish. Using her superpower of strategic public relations and communications, she created an agency custom-built to serve endurance events and their organizers.
Over the last 10 years, Treat PR has become the endurance sports industry’s premier public relations partner. The award-winning agency represents running, cycling and triathlon events all across the United States – ranging from boutique field sizes to some of the largest races in the country.
