The Trakai Triathlon, which attracts more and more multisport enthusiasts every year, is welcoming the next season with a new general sponsor – InRento. It is the largest licensed buy-to-let project financing platform in Europe.
The triathlon event, which last year reached a record number of almost 700 participants, is expecting an even bigger turnout this year with the help of the new sponsor. "Triathlon is growing rapidly in Lithuania, but it still lacks visibility and support. That is why InRento's joining this event is an important step towards strengthening the triathlon community and encouraging even more people to discover this inspiring sport", says Gediminas Pajėda, organiser of the Trakai Triathlon.
Patience, consistency, strategy – in investment and sport
According to Gustas Germanavičius, CEO of InRento, the principles of triathlon and investing have a lot in common: "We like to say that the numbers speak louder than words when it comes to InRento. But this principle is equally true in triathlon. Our business is based on a long-term approach and perseverance – in both investing and sport, results do not come in a day. What matters is a long-term strategy, consistent work and patience to achieve your goals. Our corporate philosophy is closely linked to the spirit of triathlon – to strive to get better every day, to keep working and to keep improving. Just like in investing, in sport it's not about quick wins, but about steady growth and achieving your goals. Therefore, by supporting the Trakai Triathlon, we are supporting not only the sport, but also the values that guide us."
When plans fall through and passion drives you forward
Although triathlon is a relatively recent addition to the life of InRento's CEO G. Germanavičius, his passion for the sport has been with him for many years: "Since I was very young, I have been enjoying swimming and pedalling, so now I have combined the two by doing triathlon, and I am still trying to get used to running."
When asked about his most memorable triathlon challenge, G. Germanavičius talks about his first competition in Trakai, where he decided to participate completely unprepared: "It was the first time I tried a triathlon. It was probably not the smartest thing to do, but I wanted to experience the sport. I was so excited that four months later I was competing in the Ironman 70.3 in Turkey. The first triathlon in Trakai was probably the toughest and certainly the slowest, but the challenge still sticks in my mind as the first step into the sport. Therefore, I think that the Trakai Triathlon is a great sporting event for both experienced and inexperienced athletes who want to try their hand at this sport.”
The biggest triathlon event in Lithuania – 29 June.
The InRento Trakai Triathlon is not only a triathlon competition, but also an inspiring celebration of sport in the unique and historic environment of Trakai. Try your hand at Olympic, sprint or super sprint distances, enjoy a spectacular route and the support of like-minded people.
