Best Present Ever
I've heard of raceit.com, but haven't used it (neither for directing nor as a competitor).
our local races use raceit. It seems fine to me. I still had to pay a fee, but I wasn't forced through screens trying to sell me stuff on top of that, and they don't send me any email.
not bad for mile 25
I have had experience with the data entry error. I won 1st place in the 25 - 29 female age bracket in a 5k! Imagine my delight.
You should have taken the award and run. A new race with a pack of angry women on your heels. Great motivation.
Oooh, good thing it wasn't a Komen Race for the Cure!
http://www.trackie.com/online-registration/trackie does mostly track meets / xc, but they'll tailor to your event.
I have no interest in their company other than they're good guys I used to run with some.

They'd never be able to catch him in their groups of 5+ with linked elbows...

Depends - if you told them that he supported planned parenthood, they'd get jeeps and try to run him over.
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

I wonder what Sara thinks about all of this.
Not at it at all.

I'll have to look at some of these services. I'm looking for a basic low cost pre-registration and payment service for two very small races - a half-marathon and marathon in the fall and winter with around 100 runners for each race and around $10 for an entry fee. Last year, I did a kind of DIY registration only with a waiting list, using a survey script and e-mail. It took too much (of my) time.
One service - Event NGIN - contacted me, and they seem to have reasonable rates. Does anyone have any experience with them?
I also was looking into marathonguide.com, but they haven't answered my e-mail.

Trackie works with races smaller than that, but I'm not sure how much they've done outside Canada.

Active is still sending me e-mails, and I'm still unsubscribing.
Wonder how long it will last.
Idiots.

I work a lot with B2B marketers, and we take CAN-SPAM requirements very seriously. One of those requirements is that unsubscribe requests be honored within 10 days. Enforcement is a joke, but ignoring these rules is just another red flag that you're dealing with an ethically-challenged business.
They're cool. Wish I had been using them before my email addresses became known to the world, say, fifteen years ago.
