Any B Runners?

Any B runners hanging out in the corral WITHOUT the race retreat? I've been busy lately so I just figured out my corral placement (officially)

I'm hoping to get moved up to B and I don't have the race retreat.

I was kinda hoping for B... I was just about there. When I contacted trackshack about the race I submitted the rep told me that he put down a finish time for me of 2:30..even though the 10k finish time when put into runners world calculator is less...and would have put me in b.


Oh well, gives me something to shoot for next year... and C is good. I will be able to not feel like I need to rush quite as much as if I were in with all those fast runners...

Hi ladies! I just found this thread. I'm not traveling solo, but I'm running solo. I'm also in B without a race retreat. What time are you non-retreat A, B, and C corral princesses planning on heading out? I don't want to get there too early but obviously I don't want to cut it close either! We are staying off-site for the week, but I managed to miraculously grab a room at SOG last week right at the same time someone canceled and one became available, so my husband and I are moving on-site just for Saturday night in hopes race morning will go a little more smoothly for me.

This is my first time...and I am heading out alone. My plan is to catch the bus at about 3:30...maybe even a tad later. I know the bus stops at 4am and we have to be to our corrals by 5am. (is that right?) So not having the race retreat or a bag to check... I figure I will just be hanging out... so I don't want to get there too early.

Technically the busses stop at 4 but I think they run later if they need to. I was on the 3:45 bus from POR after standing in line for a good 20 minutes. And the line was still going. I doubt they had everyone to the corrals on time last year. I am going to probably go out around 3:30 mainly because its going to be hard enough to drag myself out of bed at 2:30 to be on the bus on time forget 2:00.

Anyways what I am saying is they have cut off times technically. And you should try to make them but they aren't going to abandon you or yell at you if you aren't where you supposed to be by the time stated as long as you aren't the only one.

It's getting close!! If anyone wants to post their corrals I will update the list on the first page. If you did post already, please post again if you don't mind. My brain hasn't been working at full capacity lately. Too much drama going on in my house. Getting away will be a much needed break.
