The BNR Road Runners did this last year and it was one of their most memorable
running experiences. The Key Bridge Marriot catered to every Wim of the runners
and their families.  The rented coach lets someone else worry about hassles of
driving and customs is a BREEZE !!!  Spouses and other family members are more than
welcome.

Please Contact Jonh Pillar for more information. John also has entry forms if you 
need one.
