Julia and I are in... I think, we sent in our check but they haven't cashed it yet.
Carpooling is a good idea as it is a long way.

FYI people, this race is not entirely 100% trail. There are a few sections where you leave the pavement for short periods of time, with about 2 1/2 miles off road on the route with the rest asphalt. Included in the surfaces that you will run on are some grass, various trail surfaces with roots, mud and gravel, and then the beach section.
A few of us ran the course last Saturday at 6:30 PM to simulate race conditions and it is dark on the course. Water stops will be at the following approximate locations, 3 3/4, 4 1/4, 5 1/4, 6 3/4, and 7 1/4. We are lining up volunteers and most of the turns will be manned by a body to direct the runners on the route.
Looking foward to seeing you all there on Saturday. Any questions, please ask.

awesome, looks like a good amount of people will be there. I'll actually get to meet some people from here.
I live in wickliffe, so if anyone wants to meet somewhere and carpool that would be great, and a bite to eat afterwards is a good idea Cat.
Let me know if you want to, my number is 440-227-7605, email mswetel13@gmail.com

Just a FYI for this run.
It is completely flat with no hills ;D
It runs around the boat docks and then into the campgrounds around the southwest side of Mosquito State Park. A great run if you are looking to get in 9.3 miles/15k...
