Boston 2 Big Sur

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taking the Challenge

April 18 & May 1, 2011 
2 marathons...2 coasts...13 days

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greetings!
Welcome to the 2011 Boston 2 Big Sur Challenge! This year should have been another six days between the events, but Easter forced us to move the Big Sur Marathon forward a week. Whether six or thirteen days...this is a phenomenol athletic endeavor and all of you should be proud that you are taking on the Challenge! We are pleased to announce that Dean Karnazes will once again be the Official Host of the B2B Challenge and will be running with you on race day.  He'll also be speaking at our free Expo Clinics on Saturday and will join everyone for the post-race party on Sunday evening.
Things to Note for 2011 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The B2B Challenge is sold out and we need to know if you were not successful in registering for the Boston Marathon as we do have a wait list of B2B hopefuls.  If you didn't get into Boston, you have two options.  We can transfer you to the open Marathon and refund you for the jacket and post-race party or we can roll over your entire registration to 2012.  So, if you won't be participating in B2B, please email sally@bsim.org and we'll take it from there.

Because we will be giving awards to the top five male and female combined time finishers at the awards ceremony, we will need you to email your Boston finish time to sally@bsim.org immediately following Boston (particularly if you think you have a chance of placing). Times from both events will also be published in the Virtual Results Book after the race.  Remember...in order to pick-up your B2B bib race weekend, we'll need to know that you finished Boston.

If you are planning on attending the post-race party and would like to bring your spouse or a friend, contact sally@bsim.org to purchase additional tickets.

We've had several questions about medallions and jackets, so to clarify, you will be receiving both a Big Sur medallion AND a B2B medallion.  The B2B medallion and your finisher's jacket will be available in the B2B tent in the finish area.

 

We are really looking forward to seeing you at both Boston and Big Sur in 2011! Best of luck in your training, and be sure to let us know if you have any questions or concerns.
