SCORING
& RESULTS
 DAG Chip System - The DAG Chip System is used for timing the 5K. The chip is attached to the back of the bib number. No wasting time, pick up your bib number and have your chip already in place. All awards and results are based off of starting gun time - not the time that you cross the start line, per USATF rules.
