it with me ahead of time, everyone needs to ride the bus to the meet. Please be
on time (which means before departure time). Make sure you eat breakfast and
get a good night sleep. We will stop in Batesville, MS, and pick up lunch (paid for
by the school). We will also stop at one of the welcome centers along I55 to allow
the runners to use the restroom and stretch their legs for a little while.
