Well design site. Maybe I'll get off my lazy butt and do a triathlon... or not.

How do people keep sites like this up-to-date when there are so many repositories of information and/or small players that are not standardized? Do they have go event by event or store by store? Is there a better way?

Let's get you on that bike soon!

re: updating - Good question. Lanyrd did this really well with professional events and Yelp did it with restaurants. It's a unique combination of crowd-sourcing, manual work, and incentivizing the organizers of the events.
