Today my wife and I awoke at 4:00 am. drove 60 miles to fort lauderdale, unpacked my gear and walked to registration. I tried to register the night before but registration on active was closed. When I got to transition i was told "no race day registration". Figuring this cant be right i went to the race director. He basically brushed me away and said "nope were done with this". I searched the esm website to see if I missed something and it said that there would be no race day registration but all I could find was this-Once at the event site just find your way to the registration tent to pick up your race gear from the Publix Family Fitness Weekend. Timing chips are given out on race morning. **On-site registration, not pre registered, will have to pay an extra fee for on-site registration depending on your event. I have seen some pretty weird stuff at races but have never complained. This time I am furious. I will never attend another esm race and will be sure to tell everyone I can about how I was treated. If the director would have at least humored me and listened to my situation I probably would have understood. But his arrogant manner pissed me off big time. I know I am opening myself up to "dont be a crybaby" replies but I had to get this off my chest.
