With an original goal of 500 entrants, the inaugural Icelandic Seafood Fest 8K Run and One Mile Fun Run has far exceeded that total, with over 700 entrants as of Monday, June 14. To ensure the high quality of this event, including preparations for the post-race seafood dinner provided to all by Bonefish Grill of Newport News, and the colorful T-shirts to all pre-registrants, it has become necessary to close off all registration as of 11:59 p.m. this Wednesday, June 16th, and to not allow race day registration.
The Icelandic Seafood Fest 8K Run, a Colonial Road Runners Grand Prix event, will be held on Saturday, June 19th at 7:00 p.m., with the one mile fun run preceding that at 6:30 p.m., all from the Icelandic Seafood headquarters, 190 Enterprise Drive , in the Oakland Industrial Park of Newport News, off of Warwick Blvd.
We will be accepting all registrations received up to Wednesday at 11:59 p.m., whether online, or received by Wednesday’s mail, or delivered in person to the security gate personnel at Icelandic Seafood. The race entry form can be downloaded from the Colonial Road Runners website:
www.colonialroadrunners.org
with the following exact link:

and is available at the Icelandic Seafood race website:

Thereafter no registrations will be accepted, nor will day-of-race registration be accepted.
The race organizers are very appreciative of the tremendous support by all for this year’s event.
