Registration is this week

Early Captain's Registration. Monday
Lottery Tuesday to Saturday.

We fielded a bunch of questions about these two things at the Lincoln Marathon Expo.
1) The race is NOT SOLD OUT. It will be at the end of this week, but as of right now there is spots available through the lottery.

2)It doesn't matter when you enter the lottery as long as you do it sometime next week. If you sign up on Tuesday at 8:01 Am you will not have a better chance then if sign up on Saturday at 4:45 pm. We will randomly pick 50 teams.

3) The early Captain's Registration-does not mean if you were in the event last year that you have an automatic spot into the 2009 relay. We will take the first 80 teams that sign up out of the 150 teams that were in the event last year.

4) I don't need all the names, shirt sizes, email addresses.... when you sign up next week for the lottery or the early captain's registration. I will ask for those at a later date.

5) I have no idea how many people will sign up for the lottery. It could be 10 it could be 300. My guess is it will be more than 50, which would mean that if you don't sign up for the lottery then you missed your chance for 2009 relay.

Good Luck.
