2012 TeamEN Ironman Florida Update #1
Hi Folks:
Quick Ironman Florida Update:
Need some help!
As of this morning I have no “official” volunteer(s) to act as Race Captain for this event. So maybe we break this down to make it easy for you all? If anyone can take one item then we will get the big items covered:
- Set-up Team Dinner for Thursday at 6:00 PM
- Organize group swim for Saturday or Friday morning?
- Organize pre-race and post-race team meet-up locations?
If you can help with any of these, please email me directly at ENRaceDirector@Gmail.com
Team Information Form
If you haven’t done so, please add yourself to the Team Info Form.
MTT Bios
One of our favorite things to do is send out a "Meet the Team" post before each race via the EN blog. If you'd like to let the rest of the Nation know exactly who they are supporting online (and help the coaches put faces to names), please send (1) a short bio (think 8-10 sentences) with (2) a nice picture of you, you and fam, you racing, etc. to ENRaceDirector@Gmail.com and we'll make you famous! Please send to me by Monday, October 29th at 9:00 PM EST.
Here are some examples to get your creative juices flowing: http://tinyurl.com/8wjh9c8
GroupMe
Also a reminder that I will be setting up GroupMe on Wednesday for you IMFL rock stars who have opted in on the Team Info Form. If you aren't familiar with GroupMe, a description is below.
Race Group
Lastly, lotsa good pre-race chatter happening in your Race Group.
That's it for now. More next week.

What is GroupMe?
At its core, GroupMe is free group messaging for your real life network. It’s sort of like a private chat room over SMS, or reply-all text messaging.
When you start a GroupMe, we give it a unique phone number. When you send a text message to a GroupMe number, that message is sent instantly to everyone in the group. We put the sender's names before each message, so it sort of like an instant chat room. All of the texts below, for example, were sent to and received from a unique phone number. It's that easy!
Steve: Hi everyone!
Max: Hey! Where are we meeting tonight again?
Kyle: I think we were going to meet at Emily's place?
Emily: That's fine. Just give me a few minutes to clean up.
Apps for Android, Windows Phone, Blackberry and iPhone. Also works for feature phones with simple text.
