COMPANY OVERVIEW
Without Limits Productions
is an event production company, for athletes, by athletes. Our organizations philosophy is to always put the athlete first. We specialize in organizing top quality fun events, such as; triathlons, XTERRA triathlons, open water swim races, aquathlons, running races, road bike and cyclo-cross events. Without Limits Productions or (WLP) for short, was created with a simple goal in mind. We believe in producing events that ensure the athlete is getting value for their money, a top quality event, a safe course environment, and most importantly one that is fun with a sense of competitive challenge. Without Limits Productions, continually strives to improve the events and the athletes experience through innovation and feedback from the most important person - the participants themselves!
Over the last 3 years Without Limits and its athletes have become much more than just a series of events, together we've created a family. People often ask why the Without Limits Coat of Arms"? That's easy; once you race, volunteer, or sponsor a Without Limits Event we consider you family. We were raised in a traditional Italian family where we learned the importance of Family and Integrity, and we strive to carry those same values and bonds to every person who takes place in a Without Limits Event!
MISSION
Without Limits Production
was created in November of 2007, and incorporated shortly thereafter. It was after years of formulating and envisioning a triathlon race that plans were put it into motion. Lance and Tony have been attending and competing in Triathlon races around the world since 1996. After becoming tired with the complacency of the long standing Tri-series around the country, they decided to bring a fresh and innovative perspective to the sport they love. Their goal was to bring the events of thier youth, the TimeOut! Productions model of event production, to the Colorado scene.
Their sporting history encompasses collegiate swimming, cross country, cycling, cyclocross, XTERRA, & triathlons ranging from the local to national and pro/ITU events. Drawing from thier backgrounds and years of competition they were able to blend and weave so many different elements to together to create Without Limits Productions. In such a short time span their vision of a an event family that stands for affordability, innovation, and style has and continues to rapidly changed the Colorado market place.
In 2011 the Panigutti Brothers are proud to see their vision come full circle as Rich Havens of TimeOut! Productions has passed the torch of the New England Triathlon Tour onto Lance and Tony Panigutti. The inspiration and foundation for Without Limits Productions back in the fall of 2007 is now apart of the Without Limits Family!
STAFF
LANCE PANIGUTTI, Co-Owner/RD
TONY PANIGUTTI, Co-Owner/RD
Lance Panigutti, Co-Founder of Without Limits Productions, better known as "GUTTI" has been competing at the highest level of triathlon for over 14 years, racing domestically and internationally as an ITU level Pro. Lance's passion for event production came during his college years while working as an ocean lifeguard at Compo Beach (Westport, CT). "I use to come up with some crazy rescue relays, rescue challenges, and things everyone else thought couldn't be done! My only regret is never rescue boarding across Long Island Sound. When I came back to the sport post college I took the same creative mentality and realized every race is a peice of art. You can shape and mold it any way you'd like, but what it comes down to in the end is giving people something they've never seen before. It's all about giving the athletes something that will test their sense of challenge, awaken their competitive spirit, and change their lifestyle in a positive light. No two races, pieces of art, or two experiences are ever the same, so it's about giving that WOW factor each and every time out!"
Lance is a USAT Level II Race Director.
Tony Panigutti, Co-Founder of Without Limits Productions has been involved in endurance sports for over 20 years. Beginning in sports from an early age, and most recently taking that passion to race directing. Coming from a swimming background growing up, Tony competed in his first triathlon in 1996, The Hyannis Sprint Triathlon on Cape Cod, where he was instantly hooked the second he got a glimpse of the finish line. Since that first triathlon Tony has competed in various distance ranging from local sprints, half iron distance races, to national championships. While triathlon is his main focus that doesnt stop him from cycling races, running events, skiing, mountain biking, and many other athletic pursuits. You're as likely to see him standing next to you at the starting line of your local race as you are holding the bullhorn at a Without Limits Event.
"It was such an incredible feeling to finish my first triathlon that I can remember it so vividly 14 years later. To organize events and see others achieve their goals and dreams is what race directing is all about."

CANDYS BIO
CANDY PANIGUTTI, AQUAMAN RD
Candy grew up as a competitive swimmer and took her passion for the sport of swimming all the way through her college years. She entered into the sport of triathlon almost as an accident. After watching several of her brothers races on the sidelines, she decided that it would be much more fun to actually compete in one than continue to watch them. So she signed up for her first sprint triathlon on a mountain bike. Instantly hooked, she continued to sign up for several more races each year eventually working her way up to a half ironman distance (and yes, she eventually dumped the mt bike). Definitely a middle of the pack racer, she most enjoys the camaraderie between the athletes and the spirit of competing and pushing yourself. During the majority of the year she teaches high school biology. But in the summer, she decided to give back to the sport that gave her so much and created the AQUAMAN swim/run series. Besides helping her brothers on race weekends and running the AQUAMAN, you can find her skiing, mt biking or training for her own races!
