Your timing chip will be placed on your race number. The race number must be worn on the front of your vest and visible at the finish line. There is a foam strip on the back of the race number. Please do not remove the timing chip and foam strip from the race number – doing so will result in NO finishing time. For safety and timing purposes, ONLY the person assigned to this race number may use it. The Trail Run, 21.1km, 10km and 5km Fun run races will be timed. The pet walk will not be timed.

The race number must be worn on the front of the vest, partially covering the ASA licence, so that the ASA licence sponsor remains visible. Temporary licenced runners must wear the race number on the front of their vest and the temporary licence on the back.

The race will be seeded, ensuring that runners experience a more efficient start to the race.

• You can submit a qualifying time during the entry process.
• You can enter your best time for a previous race under 'Athlete Details' on online entries, or on page 2 of the entry form.
• Seeding is based on a 10km race run within 12 months prior to the event.

• There will be clear signage for the seeding pens. Please give yourself enough time to park, walk to the start, and find your seeding pen.
• You will be required to show your race number to the official at the gate of the pen, so please pin your numbers to the front of your vest.
• Should you wish to run with slower friends you may enter their pen as long as it is lower than yours. For example, if you have been allocated a B seeding and your friend is in C, you may join them in their pen but they will not be allowed to start with you in B.
• Pens will close 10 minutes before the start of the race and the groups will compress. Latecomers will be directed to the back of the field.

The 21.1km, 10km, 17km Trail run and 5km Fun run will be timed by a disposable chip located on your race number. The chips are included as part of the race fee and will be issued to all race participants (apart from 5km Pet walk) in their registration packs.

How does the chip work?

• A disposable timing chip will be placed on the front of your race number and covered by a foam strip.

• The foam strip prevents water from affecting the chip signal. Please do not remove the foam strip. If you do, you will not receive an official time.
• Please do not bend or fold your race number as this could affect the antennae and signal capability.
• For all result queries please contact FinishTime Support support@finishtime.co.za or WhatsApp/Call 087 330 0001.
