Iron Oarsman Aims High with American Cancer Society Fundraiser
Newport Beach, CA – May 16, 2006 - Xeno Muller, Gold Medal Olympian and founder of the Iron Oarsman, is teaming up with the American Cancer Society during the 5th Annual Relay for Life Event being held during May 20th – 21st.
This year the Relay’s surfing-related theme is “Wipeout Cancer” and is scheduled to raise awareness and funds for cancer research (www.city.newport-beach.ca.us/relayforlife).
The event includes a 24-hour relay among participating teams, booths, a pancake breakfast, and entertainment.
“Last year the event raised $120,000 and the this year there is a fantastic potential to raise so much more money for such an important cause,” says Xeno whose father passed away from liver cancer in 1992 and whose connection with the community frequently puts him in touch with cancer victims and survivors.
In order to boost proceeds for the event, Xeno (pronounced Z-ee-no) is actively recruiting team members for “Team Iron Oarsman.” Any new member that joins the team for the event will receive unlimited access to his indoor rowing studio, the Iron Oarsman, for one week. No previous rowing experience is necessary. In addition, Xeno will have several Concept2 rowing machines at the event were team members will row and record their mileage. Muller also added, “We are actively looking for a compassionate, corporate partner or partners that will make a pledge towards the miles that we log. I have a great group that is willing to break a good sweat for this cause.”
The Iron Oarsman was founded by Xeno Muller in 2003 and provides a variety of indoor rowing workouts and techniques that been used by executives and celebrities for years. The workouts are finally becoming mainstream with the general public. While rowing for Switzerland, Xeno won the Gold Medal in men’s single scull in Atlanta (1996) and the Silver Medal in Sydney (2000). Through his business, the Iron Oarsman, Xeno has developed routines using his chosen sport that have helped his clients lose weight, increase cardiac strength, cross-train, and rehabilitate. He has even helped students obtain collegiate scholarships in rowing despite their late introduction to the sport. Contact Xeno at (949) 400-7630 for further information.
