(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.

Registration for all events is open and details can be found at www.cellcomgreenbaymarathon.com.
