Amateur Athlete Travel My daughter is an amateur athlete (triathlete) who is on the verge of getting corporate sponsors. We do a lot of travel to races around the state of Florida, and a few national races a year. If she is active in promoting the sponsors, is it possible to deduct the mileage, and perhaps hotel costs, when travelling to races? She does not get paid or win prize money, and the sponsorships are more along the lines of store discounts and equipment and free products for promoting the sponsors. It'd be nice to be able to recover some of the travel costs. |
