Subject: RE: Ironman kayaking or other volunteering Word to the wise...... Last year they provided Chipotle Burritos for the volunteers to eat. They rocked. This spring this was severely downgraded to subway subs.....that were delivered to the captains THE NIGHT BEFORE!!!! So if you don't want to play Russian roulette with food poisoning, or just all around nasty food, I would bring a little back pack with some snacks, power bars, Gatorade, WHATEVER you might want to eat in a pinch. I know the year I bike racked we were working hard and non-stop and I was starving and it took them a while to bring us food. If I had a bar to tide me over I would have been much happier. So this year I am going to be more in control of what I have available to eat. I have no idea what they will provide this year, but if this years races are any indication, I predict subway subs again, or something worse. All the races have gone downhill as far as food this year in comparison to years past. Blame the economy or rising food prices....or whatever. Just saying you might want to be prepared. |
