Chip Timing:  This year Lin-Mark Computer Sports will utilize their new CHRONOTRACK Disposable Timing System.         No other timing chip may be worn.  One of the many goals of the ChronoTrack system is to simplify the timing process for athletes. A single-use tag eliminates the need for several organizational choke points that allow the athletes to spend more time focusing on their competition and less time waiting in lines. Shorter lines before the race to pick up your bib and chip and no line to return your tag or chip afterward are just some of the benefits to the ChronoTrack system. The D-tag is easy to attach your shoe and is far lighter and less intrusive than other timing tags and chips. Once the D-tag is attached to your shoe, you will quickly forget that it is even there!  No transferring of assigned chips is permitted, as they are computer coded to your race number and to your personal race day data (event, age, gender, etc.). 
Awards:       Special awards to overall male and female run winners and first three finishers in
