Chris Mosier, a transgender triathlete who entered a YouTube contest to win a sponsorship deal with training system TRX, was one of ten athletes chosen for the prize.

According to OutSports.com, there were more than 100 competitors in the contest. Mosier, whose video received over 5,000 views, said, "with this sponsorship, I am hoping to bring some awareness to trans people participating in sports, and some of the issues we face. The first step of that is to let people know there are trans people in sports."

The prize includes money to be put toward racing and training expenses, TRX workout equipment, and a video camera to document his progress.

Mosier's next race, a sprint triathlon, will take place on June 5.
