Saturday, March 6, 2010

Welcome to this year’s 5th Annual Big Dual Invitational hosted by Vista High School and sponsored by The Running Center. This year we run exactly like last year, with only one exception. The afternoon session will be designated for Southern Section teams, while the morning session will be for San Diego Section teams. The morning secession will start at 8:00am and the afternoon secession will start at 1:00pm. There will be a DMR relay for any teams – pricing will be available for these teams that only want to run a DMR team. For those entering a full team in one of the Divisional Meets you will get up to two teams automatically for both the boys and girls race. This is optional you don’t have to run anybody or just run 1 team if you want. I am proud to announce that all the entries will be done through episports.com. There you will enter all your athletes and then everything will be seeded come race time. I hope all this information helps please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. My contact info is listed below.
