btc on May 31st 2008 Races
Paul Shaw from Cyclesmith writes …
This year’s Duathlon is next week and still only $30. If you think you would like to come out again, please pre-register this weekend, or early next week. The price goes up $5 on Wednesday (Jun 4) night, and another $5 on race day.
Hats will be available in the Halifax store from Monday for participants to pick up early, if you choose.
Race Kits (bib number, some swag, and the hat) will be available from 7:30 on race morning. You’ll need to check in with the TNS table first, then pick up your race kit. I don’t think we will have body numbering, as many compete with long sleeves. Just ensure your bib is pinned to the front, as the timing is all done manually as you finish the runs.
The list of entrants is posted on our site. If you have any friends who are not racing this year and would like to volunteer, please have them drop me a line. We still need about 10 more gracious souls for the morning. I can offer free race registration to the 2009 event, as well as a hat and the lunch. If you volunteered last year, and want to race this year - Great!
Thanks, and good luck at the Navy Tri/Du this weekend and through the rest of the summer.
