Green Bay, WI (January11, 2012) – Caps have been set for the 2012 Cellcom Green Bay Marathon. A total of 10,000 distance runners will be able to take to the streets at the event on May 20, with a cap of 3,000 participants in the full marathon and 7,000 participants in the half marathon.

“We’re excited that the 2012 course layout will allow us to accommodate more runners in our premier events,” said Sean Ryan, race director of the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon. “It’s a great opportunity for those who may have missed out in previous years with the early sellouts.”

Last year caps were set at 2,500 in the full marathon, 5,500 in the half marathon and 200 teams in the relay marathon. The relay cap has also been raised to 250 teams to accommodate the growing demand for this event.  The Cellcom Green Bay 5K and WPS Kids’ Power Run are not capped at this time.

ANSWER: To transfer your bib to another runner you must first find an interested party to purchase the bib.  We do not manage a wait list, so we suggest that you go to the Discussion Board of our Facebook page to find a runner interested in purchasing/selling a bib.  Once the seller has confirmed a buyer, they should go to the Cellcom Marathon website at www.cellcomgreenbaymarathon.com and click on the “Transfer Registration” link which is located under the “Registration Tab.”  Please read all instructions thoroughly and then begin the transfer process by completing the required fields.  Once you complete the transfer request, a special link will be e-mailed to the person the bib is being transferred to.  That person should then use the provided link to register themselves.  At this point the person registering will incur a $10 transfer fee.  The two parties making the transfer will need to work out payment on their own terms.  The marathon office does not facilitate the completion of payment.
