Testimonials from 2009
"CEO Challenges makes the race experience so easy."
"The networking with other CEOs in a non-business environment allows one to develop a more interesting relationship."
"The CEO Challenge makes the entire race experience 'complete'. You make us feel like king and queens, and very special!!"
"Everything was ideal. Ted and Shawna were incredible."
"We loved the location of the event in St. Croix, and of course, having CEO Challenges take care of all arrangements."
"Hanging out with the other CEOs in a 'friendly' race atmosphere is far, far better than doing a race on your own."
