BIB LOOK UP
Click below if you want to look up your bib. If there is an error (wrong gender, misspelling of name) you can visit the Solutions Desk at the expo to get it fixed. The Solutions Desk is located right next to Packet Pick Up.
*We cannot change corral assignments anymore. The rule is, “You can always move back but never forward.”
For the safety of the children in strollers, as well as the runners, all strollers start in the last corral, regardless of what your corral assignment is.

Hydrating for success with nuun
At different levels of stress and effort your muscles require different levels of oxygen and fuel, which proper hydration can provide.
Below are some general best-practice guidelines for optimizing your hydration plan during training:
Workouts under 90 minutes…
require hydration replenishment with electrolyte-rich fluids
Workouts over 90 minutes…
Carbohydrates play a key role in your hydration for optimal fluid transfer
During your workout…
Aim to consume 16-24 oz. of electrolyte-rich fluid per hour.
Watch for the fluid stations all along the Cowtown route, and look for the blue nuun cups!
