TIMING This is a CHIP TIMED event. Your chip time starts when your timing chip crosses the start line. Your timing chip is adhered to your race bib (race number). You will receive this number from the registration volunteers when you pick up your race packet. Please wear the bib that is assigned to you. Wear the bib on the FRONT, OUTSIDE of your clothing. RESULTS will be available to view LIVE during the event and after the race. Our timing company is Finish Well Timing.
