RUN HIGHLIGHTS: 

The awards presentation will be held inside the Rotary Park Grounds.

Awards are based on Gun Start (USATF Rules)

OVERALL & AGE CATEGORY WINNERS are ALWAYS BASED on a SHOTGUN START.

USATF Rule 245.1 states "The order in which the athletes cross the finish line will be the official finish position." Further, Rule 245.3 - regarding transponder timing - "the actual time elapsed between an athlete reaching the starting line and finish line can be made known to the athlete, but will not be considered as official time." In short, the official time per USATF rule is gun time.
