Mt. Mitchell Challenge – Black Mountain Marathon – Registration Begins September 1, 2012

Line up runners, the lottery begins September 1st.  Race date is Saturday, February 23rd, 2013.

How it works:

The Challenge lottery will open at 9AM EST on September 1st…It will remain open for 5 days…at which time it will close and the Challenge field will be assigned. Emails will then go out to those that have been selected and those that have not. The Marathon registration will remain closed until this process is finished.

On September 9th at 9AM EST, the registration for the Marathon will begin and continue until it is full. The Marathon entry process is first come, first serve, so delaying the start of Marathon registration will allow those that do not make the Challenge field the chance to sign up for the Marathon if desired. There will be a chance for Marathon registrants to sign up for the Challenge wait list.

Fees:

Challenge – $120
Marathon – $100
