so im thinking the winner is the closest not The Price Is Right style - so you could be over and still be a winner.

There is a system to assigning numbers...

Pros
Janis
Then they go by age year by year (ie all the 19 year olds, then 20 year olds, etc.) starting at youngest men year by year men then women.

Due to the varying numbers of folks entered and who have not withdrawn and haven't contacted NAS saying they aren't racing, it can be challenging to estimate/guess your number. The younger males or Janus folks have the easiest time guessing. Older women have the hardest time as the total number of entrants can vary from year to year.

The people who live in Panama City or Panama City Beach are all generally in the low 100s, so I guess that goes into assigning bib numbers too.

2363, but I had an unfair advantage in that I did the race last year. Knowing there is a system to how they assign numbers, I figured I'd be close to the same number again this year!

Haha...that's why I didn't enter the contest...446 at AZ, 491 at CdA, I figured either something in the high 4s or low 5s.  No unfair advantages! LOL

Just a number?!  Maybe it's an omen for you to move some of your stocks to cash?!  :-)

Just curious...what's the system for allocating #'s?

I got 119

 

I think they give the locals low numbers. After that your guess is as good as any.  Now I have to make a mental list so I can say hello as you all pass by.  Good LucK out there!!!
