Lots of last minute race preparation going on today. Trails are being marked, aid station supplies are being packed and rechecked, and some of us are still organizing our drop bags.

We’ve got the pre-race meeting this afternoon (3:30 p.m. at the Nature Center) which is always fun as it is a great time to see all the runners prior to the start.

Important Note: To communicate with this site during the race, use the comments feature and click on comments after each post. Race volunteers will be busy and with the addition of HAM radio volunteers, we hope to be able to offer regular and frequent updates. I will be running so I will obviously not be checking my e-mail until Monday.

Good luck to all the runners!! Aloha, Bob
