About Dare2Tri

Published by Dare2Tri on their own website. Quoted here in full as they wrote it.

Get Involved

Dare2tri is a Chicago-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of individuals with physical disabilities and visual impairments. Through the power of swimming, biking, and running, we build confidence, foster community, and promote health and wellness.

Since our founding in 2011 by Keri Serota, Dan Tun, and Paralympian Melissa Stockwell, Dare2tri has grown from a grassroots effort into a national leader in the adaptive sports community. What began with just a handful of athletes has evolved into a movement—one that empowers people of all abilities to become active, set ambitious goals, and redefine what’s possible.

We support athletes at every stage of their journey, from first-timers to elite competitors, through inclusive programming and a culture that celebrates determination over limitations. Our events and training opportunities aren’t just about sport—they’re about transforming lives, boosting self-esteem, and fostering resilience.

At Dare2tri, we know that crossing the finish line is more than a physical achievement—it’s an extraordinary, emotional milestone that creates a lasting sense of self-worth and possibility. And for many, that finish line marks the beginning of something even greater.

Our Mission: To enhance the lives of individuals with physical disabilities and visual impairments by building confidence, community, health, and wellness through swimming, biking, and running.

Our Vision: To serve as the premier model for paratriathlon programs across the world.

Our write-up

Dare2Tri is in our directory because the military community keeps recommending it. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.

In the meantime, their official site is the authority: dare2tri.org

For the organization

Are you Dare2Tri?

This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.

Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.

“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.

This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by Dare2Tri. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
