Free Swim The YMCA will be offering free use of the pool after the race on a first come first served basis, up to the capacity of the pool. More than one session will be offered if there is sufficient demand. Just give your name, and the number of swimmers in your party, at the YMCA desk when you arrive.
   
Accommodations Special discounts have been offered for accommodation during the race weekend by local businesses, Click the Accommodations link at the top of the page for more information.
   
Race Route We have tweaked the race course this year and have added some exciting surprises to the race.

You can also view the route in a whole new way. This past summer Google stopped by Amherst and we are now on Street View. The street view starts as soon as you enter Amherst from the marsh, for info on how to view the route ahead of time click on Race Route in the menu above.
   
Walking Division This year we have added a new walking division. To join in this division  you must be able to finish the course in 2.5 hours.
   
Washrooms Last year you told us, and we listened. This year there will be more washrooms at the starting area and along the race route.
   
Tech Shirts This year the first 200 registrants will receive a tech shirt. Register by June 1, 2010 to guarantee your shirt size.
