This thread is for runners that are planning on running in the Music City Distance Carnival in Nashville, TN on Saturday June 2nd AND the Midwest Distance Gala in Elmhurst,IL (W. Chicago) on Fruday June 8th.
Scott Bush (the MDG meet director) and I appreciate that money is tight for a lot of college and post-collegiate athletes, and we are both willing to help as much as we can with our limited budgets.
By carpooling, and sharing the cost of car rental, gas, hotel rooms, etc, you folks should be able to save a lot of money on travel/accommodation if you plan on running both these meets.
Think of this thread as the unofficial 'ride board' for the meets.
