We’re not bluffing!
We’re not bluffing when we say the Bluff 50k is really happening, but I bet if you’ve registered your heart just missed a beat because you thought it was cancelled! 🙂
If you are not registered, please do not arrive on race day seeking a late entry, the few cancellations we’ve had have been filled from a wait list. The volunteers checking runners in on Sunday will not be able to accept any race day entries. Early suggestions of rain on Sunday have been replaced with a forecast of sunny periods. The food and drinks have been purchased and a small army of over 30 volunteers will be on hand to dish the stuff out. If you’re not running but would like to watch, the Old Archery Range on route 80, Bluff Head on route 77 and Renee’s Way, Madison are going to be the best places to see and cheer the runners on. Plus of course, there will be the finish at Guilford Lakes School with the first runners should be back sometime between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm unless they discover that the Bluff really is “… exactly what you think it isn’t…”
