Important Notice: We have decided to use the D-Tag timing system instead of the ChampionChip we advertised earlier.  The D-Tag is a flexible strip that goes on your shoe similar to the ChampionChip.  It will be attached to your bib number when the packet is mailed or picked up.  So if you get your race packet in advance don't forget the bib and D-Tag.  You can't be timed without it.  The D-Tag does not need to be returned so you will not be delayed at the finish line.  The D-Tag is not compatible with the ChampionChip so you will not be able to use personal ChampionChips as in previous years and contrary to what the entry form says.  Sorry for any confusion.  This decision was made because we feel the D-Tag will give the best race experience.

A D-Tag instruction sheet is here.  It's pretty simple, but can be a little confusing if you're using it for the first time.  Note that the D-Tag comes attached to your race bib with a transparent backing.  Peel the D-Tag off the backing from right to left, leaving the backing on the bib.  Do not try to remove the backing from the bib.  The other thing that seemed confusing from the instructions was that you only put the tag under one or two laces.  Otherwise it isn't long enough to complete the loop.  We provide lots of help at the run so if you haven't used it before just bring the bib with the D-Tag attached to the run.
