The ultrarunning champion signed with her favorite shoe for a multi-million dollar deal.
After breaking the overall record on the Appalachian Trail in September, Tara Dower has signed a major sponsorship deal with Altra, her previous shoe sponsor.
Dower's athletic career has been nothing short of spectacular, and Altra created this deal knowing that they would be getting the best in the business. The contract itself is confidential, so we can only assume that her contract payout ranges anywhere from $100,000 to $250,000 per year. Dower is looking at one of the highest-paying deals for an ultrarunner which is an additional testament to her athleticism and talent.
Dower has been an avid of the Altra brand since 2019, when she used Altra's shoes to complete her first thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. She is especially fond of the wide toe box that Altra provides, and never plans to deviate from that design. It only took one year for Dower to be promoted to the elite team when Altra realized that her skill was only going to increase.It was a no-brainer to invite Dower to the elite team, where she would be joined by fellow ultrarunners like Jeff Browning, Amanda Basham, Justin Grunewald, and Careth Arnold.
