Things are picking up at the Garden of the Gods 10 Mile Run Race Expo at Ivywild School. Race staff thoinks 1,000 runners will pass through here today. Come on down! The beer and the coffee are flowing. It's a good day to check out the renovated school, which has been transformed into a mixed-use business and community center. Pretty cool stuff.
Runners can pick up their race packets as well as pre-register at the Expo, which is the first big event at the new community facility.
The media and public is invited to a press conference at 1 p.m. Some of the top runners in the race, including Olympic finalists and 2013 world championships qualifiers will take your questions.
