Kickin Assphault 2008

Assphault Kickers respectfully asks that race distances not be changed after May 15 due to the difference in entry fees and packages.

Great Falls Physical Therapy, Peggy Ray, DPT, will provide bagels, bananas, chocolate milk, water and Gatorade at the finisher’s tent for the 10k and Half-Marathon participants. Massages will also be available for a small fee with a portion of the proceeds going to River’s Edge Trail after the race.  The massages are available to all participants.

We encourage everyone to check out the festivities at the 19th Annual Lewis & Clark Festival at the Interpretive Center across the street.  Scheduled events include Honor Guard Encampments with cooking stations, map making, furs and sign language, medical kits and trade goods that represent the Lewis & Clark way of life.  Other possible events include concessions, float trips, hiking, speakers and concerts.  Please check the brochure in your packet!

Results will be forwarded to the Great Falls Tribune for posting at their convenience.  These will also be available on Sunday, June 29 in the afternoon by logging on to assphaultkickers.com.

The 10k will start at 6:00 a.m. to the south of Giant Springs State Park.  Immediately afterwards, the Half-Marathon will start at 6:15 a.m. in the same location.  At 9:00, the Kid’s Half-Marathon and Fun Run will start on the trail side of Heritage State Park just east of the Fish, Wildlife and Parks Headquarters Building.

Packet pickup will be from 3:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Fish, Wildlife and Parks Headquarters Building on June 27.  Packets will be available on race morning until 5:45 a.m.
