the 3$ discount per race applies only to USOF members ( as posted on the web , or other like COF benefit of the same ??)

actually it does apply to COF and IOF as well. The registration program already takes this into account, however it was not noted on the event info page.

Can you provide any more information on the Tshirt offered? Design? Color(s)?

I keep puzzling over this description of South Mountain: Because of the rocky ground and the campus stone/concrete walks, runners will want to bring their rubber cleats instead of metal.

It doesn't actually say "studded shoes are not allowed". I don't (yet) have studless O-shoes. Is this a terrain where a rubber street shoe is going to be good enough? Or do we need an aggressive O-shoe tread to get adequate grip? It sounds pretty steep.

fossil, I beleive that statement applies to the campus map/terrain, for which you definitely dont' want spikes. Traill running shoes are probably ideal for Saturday. I'll double check on Monday (South Mountain) as it relates to footwear.

An official decision has been made. Metal spikes will not be allowed for the sprint. They're fine for the other 2 courses.
