2008 Covered Bridges Half Marathon - How to Get In

Well, that didn't take long! Registration for the 2008 Covered Bridges Half Marathon was apparently closed less than a couple hours after it opened, with all the places filled. BUT... as the official site says, you can still get into the race.

One was is to join in supporting one of the race's official charities, which involves raising a certain amount of money for that charity (the lowest amount seems to be about $300). The second way to get into the 2008 Covered Bridges Half Marathon is to sign up for a weekend package offered by the Woodstock Inn, the race's Web site says.

The 2008 Covered Bridges Half Marathon takes place on June 1st, 2008, and the course winds its way through the towns of South Pomfret and Quechee, Vermont. Since first hearing about the race more than five years ago I haven't been able to act quickly enough to register. Maybe this year I'll take a look at those charity options for getting into the race.
