Murray Wood is coordinating this year IronMan event support this year and needs more volunteers. Athlete Check in occurs over three days. (July 27,28 and 29). Check in is where athletes pick up all the necessary paperwork and race articles necessary to compete. It is a great opportunity to meet the people who will be competing in the event. Those who have worked the event in previous years will note that, in general, these athletes are a pretty friendly bunch and Athlete Check in is a good experience.
