Why should you be part of the event? Here is what past participants are saying:
My friend and I had a blast running the 10K and really appreciated the "TLC" -- the breakfast was delish and it was so nice to relax while eating breakfast at tables with tablecloths AND fresh flower centerpieces!!! We've told all of our running friends about Iron Girl and are looking forward to a road trip to the Iron Girl Tempe in December!! --Lisa
Thank you for the terrific event you held for us "Iron Girls" in Solana Beach. It was truly geared toward women. And timing chips! I’m so glad you had them. The staff was very friendly and well informed. There were so many extra touches that created a fun atmosphere for all participants. - Karen
Iron Girl is a first-class organization with a lot of style, grace & friendliness; it brings out the fun in sport. Keep up the awesome job! - Jill
I had an awesome time at the Solana Beach event. The support from the other women was so inspiring. Elite racers would call out my name as they passed me with "good job Lora!" The personalized racing bibs and finishers medals were really nice extra touches. This was my 8th 5k race since April and it was my favorite. Not only was my time a personal best, but the experience I had before and after the race outdid every other event. Your announcer made me feel like a winner when I crossed the finish line by calling out my first and last name and even where I am from. To be honest, I cried a little when I crossed the finish line because I knew I had done my best. The catering was far beyond my expectations and it was a such a beautiful set up. I relaxed with my breakfast at the tables with vases of flowers and congratulated one of the women who I had met at the starting line as she came into the finishers area. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. - Lora Aflac Iron Girl Duck
