We're rolling out a new pricing system for 2012.  And it's really, really simple: the published price is the price you pay at checkout.  No more processing fees or other surprises.  If a race is $30.00, you'll pay $32.00, not $35.73.

For the 3rd year, the Salty's Half Marathon proves that low-frills does not mean low-fun.

What does it mean to you to be the best athlete in the world?

It's got nothing to do with times, rankings, pounds, or any number.  Weenies like to focus on numbers and try to control them.  Those numbers are the end product to a process. Seek to control the process, not the result!  While the numbers are good indicators of progress, you can't count good habits, and that's a far better predictor of success.  Being the best athlete also has nothing to do with any particular training method--anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to sell you something, guaranteed.
