Subject: RE: 2008 FL Ironman Registration Thanks, here is a copy of the art. from IM online. Entry Process for North America Sports Events Author: H. Manning September 27, 2007 Boulder, CO – Over the past few years, entry spots to North America Sports full Ironman Races have become highly sought after by the triathlon community. In response to this NA Sports will be instituting the following process for entry to their full Ironman Races going forward. Athletes entered in the event for the current year will be allowed to register for the next year’s event the DAY BEFORE the current event. Entries will be accepted, on-site at the race site, from 9:00 am – 11:00 am, athletes will be required to present photo ID and their athlete wristbands at the time of entry. Athletes will only be able to register themselves.
General entry for all others will be made available, on-site at the race, from 9:00 am – 11:00 am, the morning following the race. Participants may register themselves at that time, they will not be able to register another person at any North America Sports event. ID will be required at the time of entry.
Entry spots remaining for general entry will be available via Active.com beginning at 12:00 noon, local race time. Subaru Ironman Canada has not typically had ANY spots available on-line and it is expected that this may become the case at some of the other NA Sports events as well in the future.
Registration for the Ford Ironman World Championship for ALL events will be from 9-11 a.m. the day after the event at the race site. Athletes who qualify MUST REGISTER in this window and complete payment for their entry at that time. No exceptions will be made.
The rolldown of remaining spots for the Ford Ironman World Championship will begin promptly at 11:15 a.m., the day after race day, at all full-distance events. Athletes must be present to claim their spots and pay for them at this time. No exceptions will be made.
After general entry has closed, an announcement will be made with regard to the availability of Ironman Community Fund Spots. These spots will be available through the individual race websites.
