Race Updates

Important race information - updated 9/10/091...

1. Just a note of correction regarding prize awards... our brochure talks about age group awards... we will only be giving prizes to the top three male and female finishers in each race. Wished we could do more... and we certainly will as the race grows!

2. Don't forget about the kid's race at 10:00 AM.... no need to register, just come and bring two canned goods as the entry fee per runner.

3. Plan to stay for awards ceremonies: 5K and half marathon awards at 9:00 AM Full marathon awards at 11:00 AMHope your training runs are going well!

4. Registration deadline is 9/28/09... walk up registrations will be accepted after that date. But race day registrations will not receive a timing chip... not enough time to get data entered in timing contractor spreadsheet. You will receive a bib number, though.

Training Groups

As promised, here's the blog that will help you connect with other runners in the Odessa/Midland area who are looking for a training group. Here's how we want to set it up... if you are an experienced runner that can lead a training group, call me (Reggie) at 368-2500 and let me know your training schedule, running location, distances, and pace. I'll set you up with a blog post with your name so others can communicate with you and set up some running times. For those looking for a group, just keep your eye on the blog and check for groups that fit your schedule and pace.

Hopefully we can connect runners with other runners and make for a more encouraging training cycle. If you haven't registered for the race, yet, you can do so on the West Texas CrossRoads Marathon website. You save $15.00 by registering early for the half and full marathons.

Be safe... and keep running!
