Anyone in Korea running the Nike 10K Human Race? Its a race they hold on the same day all around the world. I ran it last year and it was loads of fun. Trying to register for it here in Seoul on nike.com but getting really frustrated because its really user unfriendly. If anyones registered for it, please let me know.

Thanks!

i'm registered in it. i'm pretty sure it's too late to get in it now. i almost didn't get in it because the day i registered i didn't send the money and then the next day i got a text saying my application was canceled. i called and begged them to let me in after i sent the money anyways and they said ok. i guess there was only 20000 spots and they all got filled up. i haven't received anything, emails or anything from them confirming it though so i'm not sure if i'm really in it. there should be a phone number you can call on the website. i'm not sure if anyone speaks english though. good luck. there's also the hiseoul marathon on oct 11. don't know if you can still get in that though.

I got in. There was a special foreigner registration form you had to fill in, you couldn't put you ARC number like a regular human.

This all being said I haven't received my registration package.

when did you guys register? i'm getting really irritated with the nike website. last year, it was just a matter of filling out a registration form and that was it. now, i sign up on the website and it takes me around in circles. also, i know it might be too late but, how were you guys able to register for the run in korea?
do you think i'd be able to run it w/out registering for it? In Los angeles, i remember a lot of sports stores just selling the red shirts. I'm wondering if i can just buy a red shirt and run it anyway....

have any of you registered runners received your running shirt yet? if so, what does it look like? i'm hoping to just buy one at a nike store and just run the race since its too late to register. i looked on the nike website. does the shirt look like this?
