In the roughly 6 weeks that registration has been open, a great number of runners have signed up! We’ve far surpassed where we were at this point last year, and we expect that trend to continue. At this rate, we’ll get past that 1,000 runner registration limit well before race day.

On June 24th, the registration fee goes up to $40. Sign up before then to take advantage of the $30 early registration.

Time is flying by, so sign up today!

It’s hard to believe it, but registration for the 2009 Soaring Wings Half Marathon is now open!

Even though we’re still 6 months away from race day, be sure to register early to take advantage of the lower entry fee (just $30!). Also, there will be a limit on registrations this year, so the earlier you register the better.

We’ll post updates about the number of registrations available as time goes on. And remember, you can always contact us at info@swhalf.com if you have any questions.

Also, don’t forget that tomorrow, April 25th is Soaring Wings Ranch’s Appreciation Day 2009. If you are making plans to attend, please RSVP by sending an email to mandy@soaringwingsranch.com or by calling 501-849-2253. If you need directions, check the website.

Hope to see you there!

Believe it or not, it’s time to get ready for the 2009 Soaring Wings Half Marathon!

The race will be held on Saturday, October 24th, starting at 8:00 AM. We had a great time in 2008, and this year should be even better! Because of the great turnout and interest in this year’s race, we’re putting a 1,000 runner registration limit in place. This will allow us to provide a great event and helps ensure we don’t overload the course or the venue. Register early to guarantee your place!

Registration will open on April 24th. Early registration will be $30 again this year and this will be the price for two months. On June 24th, the registration fee will go up to $40. The Soaring Wings Half Marathon is a great value!

Stay tuned for more info. See you in October!
