About ChronoTrack Timing

Transponder timing operated by Capital Running Company will be used to score the race. The system uses a computer "tag" which must be tied to each runners' shoelaces and records the exact time a runner crosses the starting line and the finish line, resulting in a net time for each runner. The D-tag is disposable. Overall awards will be based upon clock time and age group awards will be based upon transponder times.

RULES

All participants must maintain at least a 14 minute per mile pace. Participants unable to do will be required to move to the sidewalk and obey all pedestrian traffic rules. THE COURSE WILL OPEN TO VEHICLE TRAFFIC on a rolling basis after each mile. Walkers are welcome but must maintain this pace throughout the race.

No headphones. No wheels (roller blades, bikes, strollers, etc.). No dogs.
