Just some final notes for the Atlanta SEDiv event this weekend at Turner
Field:
WEATHER
Forecast for the weekend is clear and sunny, but slightly chilly. Be sure to
pack layer-type clothing, sunscreen, and lip balm (chap stick). Despite the
cooler weather, be sure to have fluids on hand since the low humidity will
wick away body perspiration.
ENTRY LIST
We currently have 187 registered entrants. Some of these entrants will not
be competing in the SEDiv event. The weekend was originally scheduled for
the Atlanta Region's Champion of Champions season finale. A number of local
people will be running this event-only on Sunday, or running for time-only on
either day. This potentially could create some delays in event schedule and
we ask for your patience in advance. While allowing local folks to run
time-only on either or both days is rather unprecedented, the high cost of
the Atlanta site and the limited number of SEDiv events this year
necessitated the need to pull in as much income as was possible.
REGISTRATION
We need as many entrants as possible to check-in for registration and get
teched on Friday evening at the event hotel; the Stadium Inn. The biggest
potential for delaying the event schedule will be a large number of entrants
waiting to check-in and be teched on Saturday morning.
PARKING
Due to the expected large turnout of event entrants parking will be very
tight. Please do not waste or hog up needed parking space.
SITE ACCESS
Access to the the site, the BLUE parking lot at Turner Field, will be limited
to Fulton Blvd. until Noon Saturday due to two walkathons in the area. For
those of you coming in Sat. morning from Interstate 75 / 85 take the Fulton
Blvd exit and go east to the site.
We look forward to seeing you all there!
