with a “Personal Time” calculated from when the runner crosses
the start line to when the runner crosses the finish line – this is
called Chip to chip timing. We will also

to when the runner crosses the finish line – this is called Guntime. As
set down by the rules of athletics, the results and prizes will be provided in
Race Time order.

Headphones and MP3
Players
Although not banned outright under the UKA Rules of Athletics we advise
against wearing headphones or earphones and other types of music players while
participating. When running on your own the choices you make are yours but a
race is different because it is a public event. It is important to be able to
hear race instructions, warnings and traffic before and during the race and
after crossing the finish line. If you choose to participate in a race using
these devices you should be prepared to accept full responsibility for
your own safety and for the safety of anyone else who may be affected. While
unlikely you may also risk disqualification.
Memento
All finishers will receive a medal – 1st 100 are gold, next 100 are
silver and all others are bronze.

correct one.
