The Local Competitive Program is again available to QUALIFYING members of the Rockland Road Runners for the upcoming 2011 ING NYC Marathon. This program allows qualifying local club members who ALREADY HAVE A NYC MARATHON ENTRY to gain access to a separate start area and have a starting position up towards the front. You must meet the qualifying times for a Half Marathon or Full Marathon posted below.
If you do qualify and are interested in participating, send the following information to TeamRRR@rocklandroadrunners.org
Name; email id; NY marathon entry number; qualifying time; qualifying race; month/year of qualifying race; age (when ran qualifying race); URL link to qualifying results
You must send ALL the information above, so that it can be consolidated and forwarded on to NYRR by our club representation. Entries will not be accepted by NYRR if they are incomplete. The deadline for submissions to our club (TeamRRR@rocklandroadrunners.org) is September 23 (absolute deadline is Oct 11, but the earlier the better as there is a cap).
This is a very nice perc for those who qualify. The qualifying guidelines have changed, so please review the following:
Below, you will find the qualification standards for the 2011 ING New York City Marathon Local Competitive Program. To be accepted into this program, runners must have run a qualifying time in a half-marathon or marathon in their respective age groups between January 1, 2010 and October 10, 2011.
Club captains must submit their athletes by Tuesday, October 11th. If members of your club have already run a qualifying time, please send this information, in the provided spreadsheet (note: Logan Scott will consolidate and send the spreadsheet for RRR), as soon as you can. Please note that due to the limited space, only the first 400 runners that meet the qualifications will be accepted into the Local Competitive Program.
NYRR will verify times based on the following criteria:
Athletes who have been approved by NYRR to participate in the local competitive start program will be notified via-email once the entire field has been filled. More information will be provided to the athletes invited to participate following the entry deadline in mid October.
