Deadlines are this week for Bloomsday registration

The Spokesman-Review
Bloomsday registration deadlines are this week for those who want to take advantage of the best rate. The 34th Lilac Bloomsday run is scheduled for May 2. Mailed-in entries postmarked by Tuesday are $15. Online registration is $15 through April 18, although a processing fee applies. Online registration continues through April 25 with a $30 rate plus processing fee. Runners, joggers and walkers also will be able to sign up on race weekend. Those entering this year’s race online, which represented 74 percent of the field in 2009, will continue to enjoy features that are only available to online entrants. That includes an e-mail about a week before Bloomsday weekend letting them know their race number and the color of their starting group, as well as the option to keep family and friends together in the same starting group.
