Nike+ Human Race Final Reminders

------------------------------------------------------------

LATE PACKET PICKUP
Runners who registered after packet pickup opened, and those
who were unable to pick up their packet this past week-end
now have the opportunity to retrieve their packet at
Niketown Chicago on Thursday, August 28 from 12-noon to 8 p.m.

Out-of-town runners or those unable to attend the added
packet pickup on the 28th, must go to the Nike Solutions
Tent at Soldier Field on Sunday, August 31 between 2 p.m.
and 5 p.m.  Please plan to arrive early to avoid long lines
on race day.

Please bring your printable confirmation page when you pick
up your packet. Your race packet contains your race t-shirt
(you MUST wear this on race day as your shirt is your race
number), a timing chip and other goodies. Don't forget to
pick up your packet before the big day.
