The determination of an IRONMAN Athlete, along with the passion to rise above the masses, creates REAL change in IRONMAN communities. These are not your regular athletes. They are on a mission to change the world: one community, one organization, and one service project at a time. 

IRONMAN Foundation Ambassadors is a group of volunteer triathletes who continually strive for positive change in IRONMAN race communities through service projects, fundraising initiatives, and athletic goodwill. This group supports The IRONMAN Foundation’s mission and staff by serving as a point of contact to current and potential IRONMAN Foundation Athletes. The IRONMAN Foundation asks Ambassadors to be present at races, assist with TEAM IMF athlete support, and recruit others to serve The IRONMAN Foundation mission.
