We are going to delay the unofficial Chase of Champions. Sorry for the confusion with the date, and the late cancellation. With it falling during Spring Break, there were far more people who could not run. I never realized the 12th was part of Spring Break when we picked it. I don't expect a really big crowd for the race, but would like to see more than 20, which we were far from getting.So, here is the plan for Saturday. We will run from the YMCA at 7:30 am. The first portion of our run will be the Battle Park loop, which we estimate at being almost exactly a 5k. We can race/run those first 3.1 miles, and those that wish to run longer can continue. I will make a route that reflects this. This way we can still have a time trial of sorts for those seeking a 5k time. I will still post the results on the blog.
If you truly want to race a 5k, there is an event in Greenville, and one in Durham this weekend that should be great options. If you are interested in a sprint triathlon, there is one in Roanoke Rapids. The deadline was yesterday, but it appears to still be allowing online entries.
So, if you want to run 3.1 miles, 20 miles, or something in between, come out and join us at the YMCA at 7:30. I will have an RSVP post on Thursday with the route. I will also be looking for a place to leave fluids.
I plan to be there @ 7:30 for a 10-12 miler.
