Thanks to all those who volunteered to assist in servicing the water stops for the 2012 Prevea Training Runs.
Below are several important links:
Prevea Training Run Routes and Distances
2012 Water Stop Teams and Schedule
2012 Training Run Water Stop Instructions
Just a few reminders:
- If you need a replacement, you will need to find a person from this schedule to switch days with.
- Do not sign up for the race until you get the secret password to sign up for free. Each volunteer on this list has a race entry guaranteed regardless of how late you sign up. If you do pay for a race entry fee on your own the race committee will not issue a refund check under any circumstances. Just consider your paid entry a donation to one of the charities, and you will use your free entry for the race.
- On the weekend you are volunteering you have to do your workout on a different day since your sole responsibility on that weekend is the water station.
Thank you very much for helping us out, enjoy your free entry!
