The 2010 race has sold out of all marathon and half-marathon entires.  No additional people will be allowed to enter either race – NO EXCEPTIONS!

Because of the large volume of paricipants race officials needed to close the race to futher entries to ensure the safety of those entered and to minimize the impact to the community.

The 5K is still accepting entries with 60 slots still available as of March 3.
