Some of you already know that I am going to be part of the Race Across America media crew for the 2010 race. I leave for San Diego on Wed, June 9 and will be traveling in “media van #3” across country while following the relay teams and writing about the RAAM 2010 race. There are three media vans in total covering the entire race and in my van there will also be a photographer, video journalist, and a driver. I am not exactly sure what writing will entail (RAAM blog? Web postings? Articles?) but I am excited to find out! I will end up in Oceanside, NY and then fly out of Baltimore on Monday, June 21.
This is also a great opportunity to witness first hand what goes on with the relay teams in preparation for my racing RAAM as part of Team Galaxy for 2011.
I plan to document my media crew experience as much or as little as possible right here on my blog and I will also try to update my facebook page. In the mean time, I am starting to scramble to get everything done so I can be gone for the two weeks and focus strictly on the race.
Here we go!
