Timing:

Enjoy accurate timing of your run and walk with ChronoTrack Timing System
which uses a disposable timing tag, called a D Tag. This allows you to walk
away from the finish without the need to have your tag
collected.
The ChronoTrack timing tag (D Tag) will be attached to your race bib.
The D Tag will be labeled with a number that matches your race
number.
