The price for the walk is $20.

SPECIAL MILITARY PRICING – $20 for the marathon and $10 for the half-marathon.   The only thing we ask is that if you take advantage of this we would like you to spread the word of this race to your military unit and any others you can contact.  We keep the price down by doing grass roots advertising like this.

PACKET PICKUP –  will be held Saturday, November 10th at the Marshall University Recreation Center at the corner of 5th Avenue and 20th Street.  (For those who have done the race before 2009  this is a quarter mile west of the previous packet pickup area).  (This is also very close to the stadium where the start and finish of the race will be).  Hours will be noon to 6pm.   We will serve the incredibly healthy and great tasting Dean Ornish spaghetti dinner from 4-6pm.  This is free to registrants and guests under the age of 10.  Older guests will be $8.

At 3pm there will be  special talks  by Dr. Bob Kroeger, author of “Life Nuts” and Mike Fremont who is an age group world record holder at the age of 90!   These should be very interesting to hear. 

Timing Chips will be inside your packets.
LATE REGISTRATION  – this will be on Saturday at packet pickup during the above hours.  There is no race day registration in any category in 2012.

LATE PACKET PICKUP – we strongly urge race packets to be picked up the day before, but if you can’t make it we will have packet pickup available near to the starting line from 6am – 6:50 am on race day.  This will be in lobby of the Marshall University Rec Center (location as noted above).

** THE ONLY PACKET PICKUP ON SUNDAY MORNING WILL BE FOR MARATHON AND HALF-MARATHONERS ;  RELAY RUNNERS AND WALKERS MUST PICK THEIR PACKETS UP SATURDAY AT THE RACE EXPO.    YOU CAN HAVE A FRIEND PICK UP YOUR PACKET ON SATURDAY IF YOU CAN’T MAKE IT.

“COMP ENTRIES” – we get questions periodically on what qualifications there are for free entries into the race.  The only ones we allow are for previous winners as well as for low income (proof of income is needed for this).
