Enrollment Done!
On August 5th the ATY organizers got together and selected the roster of runners for the 2007 races. There may be adjustments to the list over the next few months, but for the moment it is complete.
You can view the link by visiting the Who's Coming link in the navigation bar. Be sure to view the pictures and biographies of runners. We are still trying to acquire information for many of the newcomers, but this will be added as it becomes available.
Congratulations to those runners who were selected! We have the strongest field in the race's history coming to Nardini Manor in December.
We deeply regret that circumstances are not such that we have room for everyone who would like to run at Across the Years. It breaks our heart to have to tell those who could not get in that they will have to try again in the future.
There are now less than five months to race day. We wish the runners a happy and healthy training period. See you in December.

Enrollment On Schedule
We announced that ATY Enrollment — running the lottery and all the rest that goes with it — would be accomplished on August 5th or soon thereafter. Today is August 5th, and I'm happy to say we are pretty much on schedule. It's our plan to get together tonight and work through everything.
However, we want to urge everyone to exercise some patience. There is some important system updating that will be necessary, and we wish to announce everything at once, so it may be Monday or even Tuesday before it is all done.
Persons who are selected for the race will be notified by email. Those who were not will also be notified by email.
We have far more people registered than we have room for, so we need to forewarn you that quite a few people will be denied. Be assured that we feel as bad about this as will those who cannot get in, but the reality of the race is that we have limited space and simply must draw the line.
