Fighting To End Human Trafficking Through Endurance

Meet Rob DeCou

Rob is an athlete, entrepreneur, Rotarian and most importantly, a father and a husband. In 1997 Rob spent a year in India as a Rotary Youth Exchange Student and while there set a new world record completing a 50 hour non-stop aerobics event with a dozen other participants. That experience set him on a lifelong path to challenge himself physically and mentally in endurance events. Rob swims, bikes and runs extraordinary distances and combines his passion for challenge with fundraising for programs he supports.

The Next Challenge

STARVATION
An Extreme Triathlon

On July 29th, 2023 Rob will be racing the Starvation Xtreme Triathlon in Utah. The race begins with a 2.4 mile swim in the dark, followed by a 100 mile bicycle ride at elevation, and finishes with a 25.3 mile run through the mountains.

The Starvation Xtreme Triathlon is the only U.S. qualifier for the Norseman/XTRI World Championship and is an unprecedented challenge that will push Rob to discover his limits.
