2 days til race day; pre-registrations reach 400 for 2nd time ever; Mud Mountain XIV t-shirts arrive to rave reviews





Last year, for the first time ever, pre-registrations for Mud Mountain topped 400. But it happened the day before the race. This year that mark was topped on Wednesday, and with 2 days to go, it seems possible that 500 runners may sign up before race day. If that happens, the record of 567 total runners seems certain to fall, and a total approaching 700 is not an impossibility.

In the meantime, the 2009 Mud Mountain T-shirts arrived, hot off the presses, in time for a photo shoot (above) with members of the Edwardsville High School cross country team. The shirts, printed by Gillans Graphics, were designed by EHS head cross country coach George Patrylak, and booster club member Petra Wright. Congratulations to both on a great shirt.
