Before you read the entry procedure:
The main website for this meet is www.lwrun.org
This site has much information pertaining to the meet (race day instructions, parking information, records, waivers, etc )
Please inform parents of the website.
You do not have to declare a specific race for each entry (i.e., either a Grade Race or a Team Championship Race) .
On meet day, send the athletes to an appropriate Grade Race (unlimited runners) or the Correct Division Team Champion Race (5-7 runners).
Regarding Divisions: This applies only to schools which
are planning or considering participation in the TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP RACES.
Please let me know now if you are planning
to enter the Team Championship Races or are thinking you might enter but are
not sure.
Why? We want to make sure you know the Division of
your school. www.lwrun.org has a list of Division
assignments but it is not all inclusive. We will update the list as new schools
notify us.
On race day send any 5-7 runners to the
appropriate Championship
Race (if you wish)
and all others to the appropriate grade race!!!

The person doing the entry must also enter their email address. The email
needs only be entered once if a
coach is entering multiple competitors.
If you are entering multiple competitors, repeat the process. There is not a way to upload a full team roster.
After completing all individual entries, proceed to check-out.
The race entry fee per individual is $5.00 (same fee since 2013).
There is $1.50 transaction fee assessed by SimplyRegister. That
fee is for all entries done at one time, which is why we recommend
doing all entries at one time.
If there is a late add, that single entry incurs $1.50.
There is also a 6% fee per runner entered - that's 30 cents on the $5.00 entry fee
Examples:
If you enter one runner - Race entry fee $5.00, transaction fee $1.50, service fee $0.30 = $6.80 total
If you enter 40 runners - Race entry fee 40 x $5.00 ($200), transaction fee $1.50, service fee $0.30 x 40 ($12.00) = $213.50
We understand that there are some schools which have not yet formally placed this meet on their schedule and we do appreciate that you do inform the parents of the opportunity to enter their youngster(s) themselves. The cost of entering the meet in this case will be less if one parent is willing to enter all at one time. Please direct the parents to www.lwrun.org for ENTRY PROCEDURE.
Entry fees can be paid by credit card or by online check (ACH).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In each case, the
per-individual entry fee and service fee
is charged and due. $5 + $0.30 = $5.30 per entry.
The amount is based on the number of runners entered online and NOT on the number of runners that ran on race day.
