Friends and family--
First and foremost, thank you SOO much for your prayers and support over the last few years. I am overjoyed to announce that Eli is on his way to Beijing for the Olympic Games! We have had numerous questions recently about what friends and family not travelling to Beijing can do to support Eli. So here's the list...
• PRAY! For peaceable team dynamics (the team will be together for three weeks prior to competing), for health during travel, for mental clarity and focus, for personal bests in each individual discipline of the Modern Pentathlon, for enjoyment, for post-Olympic career plans and FOR THE GLORY!
• VISIT Eli's website at www.elibremer.com often for media updates, news and blog posts. Eli's blog has also been sydicated by Lenovo, USA Today, and NBCOlympics.com, so the blog is updated about every 2 days.
• EMAIL your good luck wishes no later than August 19 either through the website or to 2008Olympian@gmail.com.
• WATCH Eli compete via streaming video. Beginning at 6:30 p.m. MST (8:30 p.m. EST and 5:30 p.m. PST--see schedule at www.elibremer.com) on August 20, Eli's event will be broadcast live via streaming video on the Internet. We will have the link on Eli's homepage, but the broadcast will originate from http://www.nbcolympics.com/modernpentathlon/index.html. We will not know about television coverage until the day-of.
• DONATE online at http://www.elibremer.com/contact.htm to offset training, marketing, and travel costs. Anyone donating $50 or more between now and August 10 will receive a free Eli Bremer T-shirt (to wear on August 20!). The Tshirts can also be purchased separately and mailed to you for $15. For more information about what the money will be used for, see 6/21/08 blog post entitled, "The Cost of Excellence". Again, your order must be received no later than August 10 to receive your shirt before August 20. When using PayPal, just put your requested size(s) and mailing address in the comments section.
Thank you all for your love, support and prayers! Feel free to forward this on...

Cami and Eli -
Great site! Congratulations on Eli's great performance in Beijing. I'm an old friend of Eli's from USAFA. Just bumped into the news about him online. I was in Beijing for the Olympics and now a little bummed I missed you guys. Hope all is well!
