Registration for the Jersey Shore Relay is now open. Returning team captains should have received an email concerning special rates for returning teams of $25 per person until January 31, 2008. So sign up now to guarantee your entry and the reduced rate. Remember we have sold out the relay in the past two years and we expect another sell out. We are limited to the number of teams that can participate.
This year we have added the Jersey Shore Marathon Distance Run. There is no limit on the number of participants in the Individual Run. Its a point to point run from Seaside Heights to Asbury Park. Bus transportation to the start is provided in the registration. We will be adding more water and Gatorade stops to accommodate those who want to do the entire 26.2 Mile course.
We will also have a Fitness Walk and Run starting and Finishing at Asbury Park's newly refurbished Convention Hall - an application will be posted on the Relay Web Site soon.
We have a new caterer courtesy of Ross's Dockside in Sea Bright - and we'll have great food and drink for all along with several great bands on stage at Convention Hall. An Expo is also planned.
This year New Jersey Special Olympics will be taking a more active role and we have some exciting things planned.
So get your team mates together if you ran last year - and if you want to run this year - start putting together your team and sign up soon.

Joan Benoit Samuelson is the scheduled speaker at the pasta dinner. It is a great scenic course, complete with a covered bridge. I did this about 4 years ago when it was the Runners World Half. Not to be missed. There are speakers from Runners World at the expo. Great total week-end event. Superb support from the community, but could I say anything else, as I grew up there. - Deanna MacLean Roberts
