Subject: RE: Victoria New Balance !/2 Iron man I did this race last year. Here's the way registration worked.
Registration became available in late April. They told us late Feb. or March last year, but it wasn't actually available until mid April. A couple of days before the form is put on the site, registrations forms are mailed to past participants and are available at Frontrunners in Victoria. Then registrations forms are put up on the site. Then a couple of days later, online registration is made available. Registration is first come first serve and the race fills up fast. They take 500 people, I think. Registration priority goes by the postmark date of your entry. So if Person A sends in their form on April. 18th, but person B registers online on April 19th., person A will get a spot first. This is why it takes a long time for your registration to be confirmed on the website.
I will get an entry form in the mail this year, so if anyone wants a copy, let me know. I'll try to remember to update this thread when I receive it.
