Transition 2 – ‘Stadium to the Sea’

March 27, 2018 | Los Angeles, CA

Several members of the Los Angeles based IT consulting firm once again live up to their name by conquering the recent 2018 Skechers Performance Los Angeles Marathon.

T2 Tech Group (T2 Tech) founder and managing partner, Robert Konishi has set the tone for the consulting firm’s culture by naming the company after transition two (T2) in an Ironman triathlon. T2 represents the transition from biking 112 miles to a 26.2 mile run in a three-part race.

As Robert states, “You have to have a plan. You need to prepare and execute on that plan to be successful. We often find ourselves in challenging situations, but we dig deep and find a way to persevere. Our team truly represents T2 Tech’s culture both in and out of the office by helping colleagues and clients get through tough transitions.”

The iconic LA Marathon is known as a diverse and challenging course that starts at Dodgers Stadium and ends in Santa Monica overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Over 24,000 runners registered to run the 33rd edition of the race on Sunday, March 18, 2018, contributing to over $4 million raised for charity.
