This year we are happy to announce the usage of disposable timing chips provided by
Sport Systems. Attached to the back of your race number is a devise that will ensure accurate timing results. Please DO NOT manipulate the devise in any way. Doing so will make it inactive. When you cross the finish line your chip will automatically calculate your race time and let you know how many bananas you managed to beat.
* Because we are using disposable timing chips we will not need to collect anything from you at the finish of the race. You can keep the chip and your race number as memento from the event.
Please fill in your name and emergency contact information on the back of your race number.
Race results will be posted immediately following the race in the race village, courtesy of
Sports Systems, as well as posted online at www.bananaman10k.com. You will be able to see your race time and how many bananas you beat.
