Good, the bad, the ugly....
I guess the good news is that our 7th CCHS Delaware Half Marathon and 4 person relay have sold out. I would guess that the marathon will sell out next week. The bad news is that many who waited have been shut out. And the ugly......well the ugly are the phone calls and emails i get letting me know how disappointed they are and that we did not promote the deadlines when we were close to selling out. HELLO! We had from the git go deadlines posted. IF we did not sell out early. We did post on the marathon website daily updates and notices on the updates page what the number of participants were for each event. So why the 2000 cap you ask. Because this is what we can handle using Tubman Garrett Park and our two loop route. We will look closely at this number and if possible up the number of participants next year. So as race director my comment to you who waited...."I hope you can join us next year." Or better yet....join us as a volunteer. You just may enjoy helping out.
