For those who didn't get the email, I posted it on my website at:

Interesting, the are raising fees for each race $15 after 2/29. Better hurry to save a few more dollars!

They are also changing the design of the marathon and half marathon medals.

Do you think they will make the "Mickey" and "Donald" more like the new "Goofy"?

 

[ultramickeymouse]

That would make sense. They used the Goofy as a test

Now I have to get healthy to get my new medals

I sure hope they are good medals. Nothing plain and boring.

However, how many of you see this as another excuse to have a shortage of medals again? Granted I haven't run the last 2 years but I have been reading the terrible reports of people having to wait because they have run out. I sure hope it doesn't happen because I really don't want to finish to find out there aren't any medals. I will seriously cry.
