Cue a freakout

[taratru]

Got the email from MCM that bib numbers are ready, come get your e-card thingy. Click on it, fill out the info: "sorry. Your info doesn't match anyone." Hmm...ok. try different format of birthday, still no. I call, she says try your birthday this way, but I have to use my phone to try it and I hang up, so when it still doesn't work, I call back, can't get anyone. I left a message but no call yet. I'm not showing up in the searchable database either (never did, but the FB page people assured me that happens a lot so don't worry).

SO. Here I sit, completely worried, waiting for a call. I have a confirmation number and email, so it's fine, right?!

[Raggedeannie]

But you GOT AN EMAIL right? Breathe!
But let me know if I need to go yell at someone!

I'm sure you're fine. The fact that you are freaking out does confirm that you do really want to run this race

I would say, yes. That would be proof that any mess up is on their end. Keep us updated!

I absolutely do. I mean, if I'm healthy enough to do well. I'm worried worried about my hip and IT. Any sage PT advice?

[shauni27]

You have the confirmation # and email, therefore this is their mistake and they will get you in to run. I would be stressed about it, but try not to be TOO stressed or worried, because that confirmation # is like gold

[skwcm80]

I think you're fine, but I don't blame you for freaking out.

[al320]

If it were me, id freak out.

But its not me, and i can calmly tell you, its fine.

Rest! Roll and ice

[jamalynn]

I would totally be freaking out too. But with the confirmation number and email, everyone is right. The problem is on their end. I am sure they will have a number for you. Rest and relax! And keep us posted!!!

[ktzmoh]

Although I'm sure you're fine, I'd be freaking out too! Keep us posted

[runaways]

I'd probably be working myself up to a righteous anger by imagining the possibility of them giving me any shit over this. I don't recommend that. You have a confirmation number so you should be fine. Keep us updated!!

[kams]

You should be fine, but I totally understand the panic!

[mrshandy]

Everything will be fine! But I would be freaking out too.

I can't wait to watch you guys run! I already have a sign idea.

[Wines Not Whines]

I think this happened last year, too. I remember seeing a bunch of posts about it on their FB page. I remember people called and were able to get it fixed. Don't panic yet!

[jordylee]

If you've got confirmation, you're fine. But I totally understand you freaking out, and I would do the exact same thing. For my hip I've been icing 3 days a week and doing pretty much no exercise for the last 2 weeks and it has really helped a lot. I look ridiculous, because I have been stuffing an ice pack wrapped in a thin kitchen towel into my underwear by my hip lol. It's pretty sexy, you should give it a try

[katinthehat]

Drink up. But you'll be fine ?
