Subject: Guaranteed 2012 NYC Triathlon Entry (1 available)

So I volunteered for this past year's NYC Triathlon, and one of the benefits of that is a code for guaranteed entry into the 2012 race.  At this point I know I will not be ready for the race in 2012, so I would like to give away the entry code.  (NYC Triathlon said it is fine to give the code to a friend)  Not quite sure how I want to pick a person, would prefer a NYC area resident that hasn't made the cut before but just let me know why you deserve it.  Of course I have the final say, no fairness is guaranteed, so no complaints please.  I will PM the code on Thursday night, and it must be used before Friday 10/28 at midnight.

The race is July 8th and cost $265 (stil must pay entry fee, code just gives you a spot).

(If this violates any rules of the forum just let me know)

I would like the spot because I can't swim 1500m unless it's down current and I have a noodle.

Seriously though...nice gesture on your part.

You could also auction it off for a charity. I did NY last year under a charity slot and it's a great race.

I'd like to throw my name in (Bill).  I live in the NYC area.  I can't say I am deserving for any reason.  I pay my taxes, don't beat my kids, etc., but thats all.  If it helps, I'll wear a logo sticker from whatever college you want (but I won't paint my face or chest with team colorsSmile).

Anyway, nice of you to put this out there.

I live a mile away from the swim start and lost 130lbs training for tris. I'd love the entry! Before and after pics available upon request.

Add me to the list....

I also live in the NYC area and would love a chance to  swim in the Hudson ( did I just say that?). Did my first sprints this past summer and would like to  do an Oly.  I put NYC (and possibly Westchester) on my to do lists (if possible) for next year. I've never won a lottery so didn't have high hopes for next week. I have lot's of friends who went to U of Fl (does that help?)

Even if I don't win your lottery let me know about the volunteer program so I can enter in 2013.

I would love a shot at the guaranteed entry.  After two seasons of just doing local South Florida races I am looking to do a few larger races on the east coast.

As a fellow proud Gator - hope that earns bonus points- I would look forward to sporting my orange and blue colors in New York for this race.  The wife and I were discussing a family vacation to New York City this summer - this would make it a no-brainer. 

Thanks for the consideration.

The winner was PMed just now.  Thanks for everyone that showed interest, and best of luck if you are going to enter the lottery.  To those interested in volunteering for the 2012 race, just check http://www.nyctri.com/Volunteer.htm around march or april when they post the volunteer opportunities.
