Subject: Bummer........

I have been training since June, raced twice this summer.  Scheduled my last event for this year for Sept 26 for this Tie Dye Tri in Norman, OK.  I "thought" I had registered online weeks ago.  Had to fill out my personal info, predicted times etc..... at the end of the process, it showed a balance owed. I didn't pay the balance at that time, however, I logged in the following week to make sure I was still signed up and when I logged into the site it still showed a balance due for the event so I figured I was good.  Logged in to pay today (a week out) and it says registration is full.  I'm thinking no biggy.  Call the director of the race.....essentially she tells me that I never registered and she couldn't help me.  Ultimately, my fault.  Lesson learned.

Now I have no race and feel like I worked hard for nothing.....

That's a bummer.  Are there any fall races you could register for instead?

Go volunteer and you'll still have a blast there.

Sorry to hear that.  I can relate as I've also procrastinated and got bit.  Volunteering really is fun.
