EVENT INFORMATION:
10,000M run, 5000M walk and 5000M run: all age groups will compete in a single event. Age group identification will be on runners’ backs.
*Preliminaries:
In the 11 years this meet has been held, there have never been more than eight (8) competitors within a 5-year age group in a lane race. Therefore, no preliminaries are on the schedule. SHOULD it happen that nine (9) from one age group register for a single lane event, the meet director will contact each athlete involved and provide the time for that preliminary.
RELAYS: Thanks to our timing system, relay teams within the 10-year age groups for masters can be organized on the day of the event. There will be no charge for the relay team. However, if any individual participating in a relay is not registered for another event, he/she must pay the first event fee ($20).
NOTE 1: Age groups may be combined within events in the interest of time and/or competition, but awards will not be affected.
NOTE 2: In lane races, runners must run in assigned lanes and assigned heats! This is extremely important when using an automatic timing system. There will be no exceptions.
Timing is by Hy-Tek.
