Dear Team,

 

Only 4 days until Race Day!

 

What To Wear – Please wear your team t-shirt.  If you do not have a team t-shirt, please wear either a previous year’s t-shirt or your 2013 Komen t-shirt.  The race bib goes on the front of your shirt.

If you would like to compete for an award, you must have a chip.  If you preregistered for one, it should come in your packet.  Runners competing for awards should enter the start corral by 7:45 AM.  Timed runners must be registered by 7:45 AM on race morning.

 

Carpooling/Caravanning – We will meet at the Tom Muehlenbeck Center between 6:30 – 6:45 AM on race day.  The street address is 5801 West Parker Road, Plano, TX, 75093.  Please park in the 3^rd row.  We will carpool/caravan to the Red Parking Garage on Tennyson Parkway.  The line of traffic is always long!  All roads in the area will close at 7:15 AM.  Attached is a map of the course and parking.  If we get separated or you can’t meet us for any reason, we will reconvene at the team photo area.  There are flags from different countries there.  We will meet by the crane that will take the team pictures.  We will meet there at 7:30 AM to get the picture taken.  After that, you are on your own to run or walk the race course!

 

Plano Cure-sader Info Sites – I have created many different spots where people can get Plano Cure-saders information.  If anyone asks you for online information, you can refer them to any of these sites.  There is a blog:  http://planocure-saders.blogspot.com.  There is also a Facebook Page:  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Plano-Cure-saders/102153518018?v=box_3&ref=ts#!/pages/Plano-Cure-saders/102153518018. 

Packet Pick Up?

Team,

 

Some people have told me they were randomly mailed their packets.  If you chose not to get yours mailed, I will pick it up at SMU-on-Plano on June 4^th.  Your packets and team t-shirts will be available for pickup at the Tom Muehlenbeck Center starting that night.  I can interoffice mail you the packet if you prefer.

 

Please make sure you let me know if you want a team t-shirt by Wednesday.  The cost is $7.  You can interoffice me that money as well.

 

See you in 19 days!
