Member 45 McFarland, WI | Subject: RE: IMWI 2011 Slots for Protective Services The Rumor about the Jerseys is true. Past IMWI finishers from my Dept and I brainstormed the idea when we realized the significance of the date. We approached IM with the idea about 6 months ago, and prayed they would jump on board. We were pleased to find they were all in. We are working on other special recognition also, but those are still in the works so I don't want to put them out there yet without knowing they are approved. My understanding is that these slots are in addition to the field and did not take the place of any regular slots. We did not want our idea to take away from otherw who wanted to take part in the event in our city. I wish there were more slots available. I am glad to see others are inspired by this. I hope all that want a slot get one. |

Expert 640 Sun Prairie, WI | Subject: RE: IMWI 2011 Slots for Protective Services I think I got the approval from my wife to race again next year. Looks like I will be submitting an application soon. I think this is a great idea and a way to bring attention to all those affected by 9/11 and the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. |

Some good hills to the west which mimic the course very well, but with much less traffic. Edited by GRB1 2010-11-16 10:24 AM |
