IMPORTANT REGISTRATION UPDATES:

If you paid for UPS tracked shipping, those bibs will start going out the first full week of November. When yours ships, you will get an email with tracking information. UPS will have details on ETA, etc. We will not.
If you did not pay for UPS tracked shipping, you can no longer purchase it, and you will need to come and get your bib. You can see the times and venues by clicking on "Bib Distribution." ANYONE can pick up your bib for you.
If you are not already seeded and want to be, the only place you can get that done is in person at any of the bib pickup locations. You will need your bib to do it. ANYONE can do it for you. You can see the requirements by clicking on "Seeding."

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO RACE MORNING BIB PICK UP OR SEEDING

MRR FOOD & BLOOD DRIVE

We will be collecting non-perishable food items for MACC Charities at the Ray Crothers Blood Drive. Give a pint or a couple of cans (or both!).
