Summary
Ironman is about the hours and hours of training and the celebration of race day, but it's also about friends and family . . . maybe more. The last thing you want is for your mom to be standing on a 15-hour-island looking at a confusing tracking app. Ironman Spectating is about setting up friends and family for an enjoyable weekend! Set them straight ahead of time with friends, locations, and info. Connect them to others and help them understand what they're getting into ahead of time. Share this with your loved ones and make your Ironman weekend an experience everyone will remember forever.
