The electronic timing of runners, cyclists, and triathletes has undergone a radical makeover in the last few years. The two key changes are that timing has now become both disposable and affordable! Both are important to Event Directors of today's larger events. Apple Event Services has closely followed these emerging technologies and has decided to go with ChronoTrack Timing Systems.
The ChronoTrack disposable tag is attached to the timed runner's bib. It can then be mailed with their t-shirt and bib packet or picked up at late registration. The runner simply removes the tag from the bib and attaches to their shoe. That's all there is to it! So, no race morning Chip Tent (or volunteers) needed to hand out chips– No volunteers needed to collect the chips at the finish line!
The cost of the disposable timing tag is about half of the disposable chip and about the same as conventional return the chip timing. Without all the hassle and volunteers! And, no lost chip charges after the race!
Apple has partnered with an equipment provider and can bring ChronoTrack timing to your event. There are other elements to race timing that are of equal importance. In addition to the necessary equipment; good, clean data entry along with both pre and post race administrative items are critical. We can help.
