Attach your bib
|
Is this your first time running (or walking) in an organized race?
First, if you are with your family, make sure you're wearing the bib with the number assigned to you! Each number has been assigned to a specific person, and in our timing program, that number also falls within your age, gender and race category for division awards. Attach your bib using the safety pins provided in the four corners as shown in the picture at the left. Please make sure your number is visible from the front to assist our timing volunteers. The bib will have a finish tag (perforated strip at the bottom) that is folded when you first pull it out. Do not tear off the finish tag, and do not pin the finish tag to your shirt or shorts. As you cross the finish line, you will stay in the order you crossed, and our our volunteers will detach this tag at the to use as our back up to the timing program. |
Kid's Dash
Our youngest runners may not be ready for a full 5k distance. In this case, consider signing them up for the pre-race Kid's Dash. The dash will be 1 lap around the school at Columbia Elementary for a distance of about half a mile. Kid's Dash participants will receive a race bib and participant ribbon.
RAce Timing
Participant's finish times will be tracked using Webscorer, but only if your bib number is visible as you cross the finish line. As a backup, we will be using the tear off strips located on the bottom of your race bib. Volunteers will help you to tear these off as you cross the finish. Please stay in the order you crossed over the finish line until your bib strip has been collected by our volunteers. We appreciate your help.
