Family and Volunteers

Every athlete knows we cannot compete without our family supporting us and volunteers on the course.

It's Linae here, official CHEER person and future IMFL 2006 Volunteer. Does anyone have family who want to volunteer? Is anyone interested in getting family members organized? I don't know what I have in mind. Maybe a phone tree of cel phones to give out progress reports when we see one of our athletes. Maybe something else. Or maybe just getting people together so we have as much cheering coverage on the course as possible. We can wear our t-shrits from cafepress.

Suggestions? Ideas?

Comments:
Ironman Live will be posting our times as we go, but it would be nice to have someone that could volunteer to post text reports here on the blog! Anybody have a good wireless modem? Or know how to find the wifi hotspots in Panama City in advance?
 
That's a great idea, I was thinking of signing my family up for volunteering as well...i'll let you know where they'll be assigned and all that..cool!!
 
I'll ask my husband! He probably won't be interested right now, but as the time gets close and we get to FL and he sees all the pre-race excitement the week before, he may get the bug to do something. Maybe he'd do the posting. We'll be staying at a campground right across the road from the transition area, and he probably will spend most of the day in the comfort of his recliner, moseying to transition at the times I expect to get there. I might be able to talk him into it!
 
Carol and Mo will be there but I can guarantee she will not want to volunteer with our boy in tow.
