Who to blame for that, craze people

Hey
Does anybody knows when to pick up the race number for the 50 K race coming 29th October held by action Asia.
Cheers

As far as I know, HK 15K will be moved to a new route in Long Valley, Sheung Shui from Sai Kung this year while Mizuno HM will be hold on Jan 2, 2012. I wonder how the 15K new route is designed as roads in Sheung Shui are always busy with vehicles & bicycles.
