Calling all Delco Team Runners:

 

It's time to register for the teams for the 50th running of the Caesar Rodney Half Marathon, March 17, 2013.

  We need seven runners per team. The teams are men, women, and coed masters and open coed. Last year, we had four great teams. Lets go for more! Here is what I need from you. Name, full address, age on race day, date of birth, gender, t-shirt size, e-mail address, telephone number, emergency contact person with their telephone number, and estimated finish time. You can e-mail me this information to dktate1@juno.com or mail it to me at Dennis Tate, 158 Marlborough Rd, Upper Darby, PA 19082. A check payable to Delco RRC for $38.00 can be mailed to the above address, handed to me at a fun run, or handed to me at the bike shop in Media. The race director expects a large turnout so don't delay getting registered.

 UPDATE: Currently, we have 18 runners registered. 4 master women, 9 master men, 5 open coed. Don't worry about not running a fast time. Join the team and support Delco RRC. We can use more runners of all ages and abilities. Lets top last years team totals of four teams. Please sign up soon.

February 3rd is the week for team registration for the 2013 Broad Street Run. This race fills up quickly. Is there any interest to form teams? This date is coming quick. Please e-mail me dktate1@juno.com if interested.
