- Hi everyone:
-
- Being the Asst.Registrar for the Los Angeles Marathon, I may be
- able to clear up some of the questions that have recently been
- brought up regarding the entry form.
-
- Yes, while it does ask that all the areas be filled out,your
- social security # is optional (on the forms that have it printed).
- The reason for asking for it is, as someone said, IF you are a
- money contender. Otherwise it is of no use to us.
-
- The areas that MUST be completed, to avoid holding up your entry
- form and the mailing of your bib, are:
-
- Last name
- First name
- one phone number
- address
- city
- state
- zip
- Date of birth - mandatory
- age
- citizenship
- Sex - mandatory
- Expected finishing time. Please note that if no finishing time is
- entered, you will default to the LAST corral, regardless of
- what your actual running time is. So fill it out initialy
- and be done with it.
-
- The Marathon is big on demographics which is why all the other questions.
- It helps convince sponsors that we have x number of doctors, lawyers,
- etc. in the race and hopefully will result in their contribution.
-
- At the expo, we forget all the demographic info and use only the
- categories as stated above.
-
- If anybody has any other questions, please feel free to email me.
- I am also the "start line coordinator" so if anyone has any suggestions,
- concerns, etc. I am open to suggestion.
-
- Brenda
