I wanted to share information regarding your USATF membership for 2023. It turns out that on January 15th, adult USATF membership will increase from $40 to $55 (plus fees) (!).
So don’t procrastinate anymore, if you haven’t already, renew your USATF membership here. And while you’re at it, make sure you renew your GLRR membership too! You can check the status of your GLRR membership at the bottom of this email.
As a reminder, here’s the email I sent out last week…
The USATF-NE Road Race Grand Prix is set for 2023. There are 7 races in the series with the first race coming up soon on Sunday February 12.
Once again, we requiring to you to pay a fee of $60. Once you pay this fee, GLRR will pay the Grand Prix race fees for the entire series. This fee also shows your commitment to run the series. If you run all seven races, you’ll save about $325 in race fees. Really run just about any two races and you’re ahead.
So, in addition to the fee, the usual applies to have GLRR pay for your GP race entry fees:
- You must be a paid-up member of GLRR (your membership status is at the bottom of this email).
- You must be a USATF member (affiliated with GLRR) to run in the GP series races.
You can sign up to be a USATF member here.
Note: We are club “068”
- Again, you will need to pay $60 as an entry fee for GLRR to pay your Grand Prix race fees (as mentioned above).
- You need to volunteer at the 2023 Baystate Marathon. Baystate Marathon will be on October 15 this year, so please keep this date and the days preceding and following open on your calendar – and help out! Sign up for volunteering will be available in August.
Important: To run with GLRR for any or all of the GP races, sign up here: https://www.glrr.net/
Don’t go directly to the race registration page. We’ll group everyone to get any discounts that might apply and send you instructions before the race.
