Ironman Arizona Update
Dear Friends and Family...
Four months ago, I made the decision to commit to participating in Ironman Arizona and to start my training. What was I thinking!? :-) Needless to say, it has been a ride full of challenges, rewards, friendships, frustrations and disbelief in what can be accomplished in a very short time. Now, Nov. 15th is just 9 days away!
So now it is time to taper, say thank you for your support and let you know what I am doing leading up to and including the race so that you can find me in Tempe or follow along from home! Here are the updates as I know them now and how to stay in touch.
Last training ride in Seattle - Nov. 5
Flights: Arrive in Phoenix on Wednesday 11/11/15 and departing on Monday 11/16/15. Race day is Nov. 15th with a start time of 7:00a at Tempe Town Lake. More spectator information is here.
How to find me: I'll be updating where I am, events/receptions and what's going through my head as the race gets closer on social media using the hashtag #TrackJack. A quick search should give you all my latest posts.
Events: Happy Hour Reception in Tempe On Friday Nov. 13th!
- Friday, Nov. 13th 4-7pm

- 1470 E Southern Ave, Tempe, AZ 85282

Race Day: My bib number is 329. Quick side note, I love my bib number! Three is my mom's lucky number and 9 is mine! The 2 in the middle represents my dad and sister! I'm racing with my family. :-)
You should be able to track my progress online here. You can also download this free iOS application called IronTrac that does a great job too.
OK, I think that's about it. Thanks again for all of your support over the last several months. The Tweets, FB message, Texts and everything else have been amazing. :-)
I'll let you know how the race turns out!
Jack
