31 RACE TIMING The B-Tag system has been adopted to record your times electronically. Participants are required to read the following instructions in order to ensure proper use of the B-Tag. How do I use my B-Tag? Simply ensure it is attached behind your race bib. What do I do with the B-Tag after the run? You do not need to return your B-Tag and may dispose of it after completing the race. How do I activate my B-Tag? Each B-Tag is checked prior being distributed to the athletes. The tag is always on and does not need to be activated. What is tag time and how is it different from gun time? Gun time starts recording as soon as the race category begins. Tag time (chip time) only starts recording when the runner crosses the start line. Tag time is often shorter as many runners do not cross the start line until several minutes after the official gun time has begun. How accurate is tag time? Tag time is the most accurate form of run timing available. It measures the exact time between a runner crossing the start line and the finish line. Tag time also records when checkpoints are passed, providing an accurate record of a runner s pace. 31
