Is there no athlete check-in on Friday? I am so used to HIMs that I never even thought this was not an option. That sucks. Anyway to get there today? This came up earlier in the thread. Hate to say it, but looking at the schedule a little earlier than two days before the race would probably have been a good idea. This is too big to let things go to chance. I REALLY hope you can get something to work out. Yeah. That was a really stupid thing to do. I have done so many HIMs and check-in is ALWAYS available on Friday. I did not even give a second thought about it. Anyway. I bailed on my family yesterday morning and drove to St George without them. Got here and checked in with time to spare. Whew! Good thing I live close enough to do that. Later at the dinner I found out there IS a late registration available Friday morning at 8 am. But is seems to not be advertised. And I do not know when it closes. Apparently, for whatever reason (hills, wind, etc ), 900 people have dropped out. That drops the field to about 1500 minus the pros. I sure hope that is true; maybe it will not be so crowded. Good luck all. See you on the course. |
