2011 IM SG Race Week Team Update
Folks -
Are you getting excited yet or what?? Here is a quick update for race week:
Text Alerts:
You all opted-in to receive text updates from Coach Rich during race week. On Monday you will receive a text alert stating you have been added to the Group. This is a two-way communications channel so if you have questions, want to find a team member while in SG, etc. simply reply to the unique number and the whole group will get it.
Submit A Picture And Short Bio (due Sunday, April 30th @ 12 noon):
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. by Saturday, April 29th (THIS SATURDAY) at 12 noon PST to admin@endurancenation.us and we'll make you famous!
Dinner:
You will be eating at the Olive Garden at 5:00 PM on Thursday night. You should be done around 6:00 PM with plenty of time to get to the remainder of the IM dinner and the start of the IM Athlete Meeting that starts at 7:30. The menu is simple and the food is plentiful (no dessert!), just right for a pre-race meal. Please visit the official race spreadsheet and make any changes to your RSVP so we have an accurate headcount. Restaurant address is also on the spreadsheet and noted below. Big thanks to Deb Burley for setting this up!
Meet-ups:
Because of the craziness that is IM St. George, Coach Rich will send a text noting when he will be at certain locations for meet-ups. Stay tuned!
“WorkWork” TeamEN Facebook Site:
We want to hear all about your adventures during race week! If you have a Facebook account, please “Friend” the TeamEN Work Works Facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/TeamENRaceDirector. We have established a “TeamEN Race Week Group” within Work Works for you to upload pics, give status updates, etc, to your EN Teammates who aren’t at the event, in real-time right from your smartphone or PC. We will add you to this Group on Monday.
We have created a simple 2+ minute video on how you use the FB Group on your smartphone here:
