Greetings Pig Pals!
March is blowing along already and hopefully, so are all of our Flying Pig Kids' Marathon Miles. Please take a moment to read some important updates and reminders for your groups.

Registration
Group registration for the 26th Mile Event is easily done online. Schools and groups are listed in a pull-down menu as part of the registration process, making it super easy to be included in the correct group. If your group is NOT listed, you can add them right then!
March 15th (the Ides of March!) is the early deadline for getting your group members registered and part of the custom color t-shirt option. Once your registrations are in, you will be offered a choice of our colorful shirt options.
Registration will stay open until April 20th, but the group color t-shirts cannot be guaranteed. If you wish to use the paper Entry Form option this is for groups who want to collect the forms and payments then return them directly to me. |

Adjusted Start Time for 26th Mile Event on May 5th
The first "wave" of Kids Marathoners will start at NOON on May 5th. This slightly later start allows the 5k finishers to clear the course and give the kids sole occupancy of the Finish Swine. Wave starts will follow and be several minutes apart to allow for smoother flow and an enjoyable celebration for all.
Stay tuned for more information on specifics of your group's staging area and race day instructions in the coming weeks. |

Group Packet Pick-up at our office!
Save these dates: April 30th or May 1st for picking up all of your group's shirts, race bibs, and essential event materials. Once again, we will be giving you all your group materials early Marathon Week so you can get them out to your kids in time for the big day. No need for every single group participant to come to the expo or stand in line on race day. This early pick up is for KIDS EVENTS only. We do not have access to other Flying Pig Marathon event packets. |

March Mileage Bonus!
In the spirit of Saint Patty, why not offer double miles for anyone wearing green on March 17th?
Have fun out there! Any questions or issues, please contact me directly!
