What an incredible event... a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run. Today was the Boise Iron Man race, and I had the privilege of volunteering at one of the aid stations along the run with the Boise Young Professionals. I passed out coke and goo. I think the coke table was the most popular - I had no idea so many people liked to drink coke when they were running! Anyway, I was amazed by the 1700 athletes that competed in the race... and was even more excited to cheer on three of my co-workers! Great job ladies! I don't think I would have been able to make it past the swim! What an accomplishment and an inspiration.
I forgot to mention an added element to the event - the rain! We have had a really rainy June, and today was no exception. It rained the entire 5 hours I was volunteering, and I was SOAKED! I was glad I had a rain jacket to keep at least part of me dry...
