48 hours to go until the BGSG 5K at RJ Corman’s in Nicholasville!

Online registration has been extended. Encourage your friends and fellow runners to take advantage so they won’t be in a long line registering on site Saturday morning. To speed up packet pickup, if you have a friend or group you want to pick up packets for, email Frank Miklavcic (fmiklavcic@aol.com) so we can bundle those together and have them ready for you. For families, husband-wife, etc we will put bibs in one packet. Labels will be on the pull tag. DO NOT REMOVE THE PULLTAG before the race. It will be pulled in the chute after you finish.

Also do not go back on the course and run through the chute with someone after you have completed your race. This causes timing problems when a runner crosses two or three times and their times are recorded but they are not finishers.

Pin your bib number on the front, not on the back.
