Quote | Reply
I am registered for the 2019 Am Zof but am unable to compete. I have decided to donate my entry fee to a past or present member of the US armed forces. RD has approved the transfer. Please message me if you or anyone you know would like my spot.

Bump!

Sorry you can’t make it, but very cool of you to do this!

C’mon people - all the run/bike/beer/heckling action you could ever want, in an incredibly beautiful and challenging venue.

HOO-AH!!

I would personally reach out to any armed forces triathlete if I knew any. As it is, the armed forces guys I know live nowhere near here and don't bike.

This is a really fun, low key race and I wish people were as genuinely excited by that as I am.

Ooh, I just had a thought. I know there's a USMES cycling team on Zwift. Have you tried cross-posting to Zwift Riders / Racers?

Thanks for the suggestion, do you have a link to that group? I dont read any other forums, but would be happy to post there too.

I read the Zwift Racers FB group pinned post and it seems posting about a non-zwift race in this context is against page rules.

Zwiftpower is an independant group/website that has an associated forum. Maybe check out what might be possible there; I've never used their forum.
https://www.zwiftpower.com/

But back to FB, are you in the Pathetic Triathletes group? I can't think they have rules against posting about specific races for this kind of topic.

That group is prolific and may over ride your feed, but it would get lots if eyes on it.

ETA USMES has ther own web presence but I can't get the whole link to paste correctly with my phone.

As a retired vet of the US armed forces, thank you for such a nice gesture. Kudos to you.
