About Chip Timing Technology & Designer Bib #s:

1. Do NOT modify or crumple the bib in any way shape or form
2. Wear the bib on the outside of all clothing
3. Wear the bib on the front of your clothing
4. Do not cover up the bib as your cross the start and finish mats as it may block your chip from being scanned
5. Start/stop your own watch after you have crossed the mats
6. You do NOT need to return your chip after the race

    Race results will be posted on site and online within minutes of the last finisher in the 5k
