Welcome To The Team: 2016 TEAM IMF Ambassadors

April 7, 2016

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” – Margaret Mead

Thirty-Seven athletes.

Five races.

One common goal: To be a catalyst for change in IRONMAN race communities.

What does it take to be a TEAM IMF Ambassador? The determination of an IRONMAN Athlete, along with the passion to rise above the masses and create real change in IRONMAN communities. These are not just your regular athletes. They are on a mission to change the world, one community, one organization, and one service project at a time.

Proudly displaying the words “The IRONMAN Foundation” on their IRONMAN race day gear, these athletes can be found racing across the nation this season. From IRONMAN Texas, IRONMAN 70.3 Vineman, and IRONMAN Wisconsin, to IRONMAN Maryland & IRONMAN Arizona, the TEAM IMF Ambassadors will go into our race communities to be the change. Through The IRONMAN Foundation’s mission of “Service Through Sport, Commitment To Community”, TEAM IMF ambassadors will not only fundraise to fuel life-changing grants; they will also step foot into the organizations that need help the most, and lend a helping hand to change the lives of those who are often overlooked.

“Being a TEAM IMF ambassador for [The IRONMAN Foundation] has added a great new aspect to IRONMAN events I previously didn’t know was possible. Using my love for the triathlon to raise money and awareness for charities local to the races I participate in has made this journey so much more meaningful to me than I could have ever imagined.” – TEAM IMF Ambassador, Robert Maar
