ALL our race events are chip-timed. The timing chip will be attached to your race bib that you will pick up during race kit pick up. Please wear your race bib on the front of your person (affix with safety pins) and do not bend or fold the bib in any way. Your chip-time will activate as soon as you cross the starting line and de-activate when you cross the finish line, thus giving you a race time! 

All events will run regardless of the weather! Please dress accordingly.  Severe weather may result in the cancellation of the event for safety reasons.  A cancellation or delayed start notice will be communicated through our Facebook, Instagram and Website.  See Cancellation Policy.
