Master 1397 Granvile, Ohio Bronze member | Subject: RE: IM Louisville - Volunteer Thread Hmmmmm. Did you consider your T2 time when you decided on those shorts?  I'll be HAPPY to dress you and kick your a$$ out on the run course so I can head to the finish line and wait for you to cross! edited because I forgot that a$$ was a naughty word.

Veteran 1097 Elizabethtown, KY | Subject: RE: IM Louisville - Volunteer Thread To everyone flying/driving in - welcome to Kentucky! I'm slated to be a swim course marshal, with no idea what that really entails (do I get a sheriff's badge?), other than I'll be positioned somewhere near the swim start (Tumbleweed). 5:30-9:30am. If you're feeling nervous and need a good kick in the pants, just seek me out. Will be wearing a blue Pearl Izumi jacket (it's supposed to be 55 degrees in the morning!!!!) and a white PI visor. Name's Jeff. Good luck, have fun, and enjoy the weather out there on the bike and run. Edited by roch1009 2009-08-26 8:49 AM |

Extreme Veteran 482 | Subject: RE: IM Louisville - Volunteer Thread Mike and I worked the volunteer tent Saturday from 10-3:30pm. We checked in all of the bike and gear folks that day. Then, yesterday, we were finish line catchers from 2:30-10:30pm. That was an absolutely amazing experience. I am sure that we caught many of you. I just want to say how amazing all of you are as athletes. To see first-hand what you put into this ironman-thing, and what so many of you leave on the course is just amazing. I consider it a real treat to be able to help out. Great job to all of you BT IM KY finishers!! |

Member 26 Oldham County | Subject: RE: IM Louisville - Volunteer Thread Our family had a such a fun time volunteering for IMKY the past four days, met so many nice folks. I cannot begin to imagine how it must have felt for the athletes as they crossed the finish line and heard YOU ARE AN IRONMAN! I know I saw each one of you Sunday as I was the dude at the top of the 1694 turnaround that said "watch the turn, easy on the turn" approximately 2800 times. Congratulations everyone. Scott |

Extreme Veteran 464 Louisville, KY | Subject: RE: IM Louisville - Volunteer Thread I had a great time volunteering, over the past few days. All the volunteers were great, but I would like to say that the athletes were absolutely amazing too. They were all so grateful, and didn't miss an opportunity to say thank you. Will be back again next year to volunteer, and then 2011.....maybe...just maybe....I'll be on the other side. Congrats to everyone! |
