PA Grand Prix Racing for 2014 continues
on 5/10/14 & 8/16/14 The
next Ultra Grand Prix race of 2014 is the Quicksilver 100K/50K on 5/10/14. The next Road Racing Grand Prix race for 2014
will be the Pacific TherX 5K4Play on 5/10/14 and the first Cross Country Grand
Prix will be the 14th Annual UC Santa Cruz XC Challenge on 8/16/14. The subsequent race on the Ultra Grand Prix
will be the Silver State 50M and 50K on 5/17/14. The subsequent race on the Road Racing Grand
Prix will be the Marin Memorial Day 10K on 5/26/14 and the subsequent race on
the Cross Country Grand Prix will be the 4th Annual Rebels XC Challenge on
8/23/14. We had a VERY good Racing
Season in 2013, let’s do it again in 2014.
We need to do our best to have Tamalpa Scoring teams at all of these
races! In order to score for your
Tamalpa racing team, you need to have a 2014 USATF card. Please be aware that USATF cards are annual cards good for one
calendar year. If you do not renew your
card each year after 12/31 of that year, your USATF card will NOT be valid for
the following year! We had Tamalpans
running the Across the Bay 12K who thought that their USATF cards were still
valid, but were wrong and we could not score those individuals on Tamalpa Teams
in the Race! You
can check at http://www.pausatf.org/data/members.php?club=100 to see if your
USATF card is current. If you do not
have a current USATF card sign up for your 2014 USATF card at
http://www.pausatf.org/data/PAAppOnline.html.
Make sure you list Tamalpa, Club #100 as your Club. It is easy to miss the Club designation when
you sign up for your USATF card. Look
for the Club Designation on the RIGHT side of the screen Make sure you have
your 2014 USATF card and get out and race for your Tamalpa racing team. Make sure you wear a Tamalpa uniform top in all
PA races.
