April 1st Race Registrations

On April 1st, two major races open for registration. Beginning at 8:00 am the Medoc Trail Races opens up. The race is scheduled for October 17th and is limited to the first 350 runners. This race will sell out, it is just a question of when. The 10-miler has an early entry fee $40, and the marathon has an early entry fee of $55. RMEC members get $5 off their entry by using the code "RMECMEMBER". We will monitor use of this code. If you are not one of the 51 members listed under the "Contact the RMEC" link to the right you are not elligible. If I have you missing from our member list, let me know!

At noon on the same day, the Marine Corp Marathon will open online registrations. The $88 registration fee includes bib, mock neck participant shirt, free virtual trainer, goodie bag, ChronoTrack timing tag with ten split locations, race program, shuttle service, free race day parking, on-course and post-race hospitality, and waiver of online processing charges. Voted "Best Marathon for Families", the Marine Corps Marathon continues a combined tradition of dedication, sportsmanship and patriotism.

I think I speak for all of those who ran the 2008 Myrtle Beach Marathon when I say lets hope the "mock neck" shirt does not have zipper. If you plan to run the Marine Corp Marathon, we really hope you will sign up as a volunteer at Medoc.
