Scoring / Awards
AWARDS
We will not be presenting race awards for this event for one main reason - we want this to be about accomplishment and not a competition. Besides, almost everyone will be "racing" on a different course so there is really no way to compare times relative to one another. We will be awarding age group awards as normal at our in person events, just not at this virtual one.
HOW TO REPORT TIME
You will report one time through the RunSignUp portal.
Athletes should simply add up the time it takes to complete each distance to get a total time. For example...The swim takes you 5 minutes 20 seconds. The Bike takes you 35 minutes 20 seconds. The Run takes you 18 minutes 5 seconds. The time you will submit into the portal is 5'20" + 35'20" + 18' 05" = 58' 45"
For the 5K you obviously will simply post the time it takes you to complete the 3.1 miles.
You will also need to be able to verify the distances covered. There are MANY ways to do this and our preferred method is using the RaceJoy app on your phone. This app is free for you to use and will track you during the ride and / or run portion of the event. For the swim portion we will simply take you at your word you completed the distance and were able to measure your time. Once done you will submit your total time as stated in the section above.
Here is a list of possible ways to verify your results:
- Use a Garmin or other GPS enabled watch
- Use any sort of tracking app on your smart phone
- Send screen shots, photos or any sort of downloadable distance file from any indoor equipment you used (smart trainer, treadmill, etc)
- Send a link to your Strava account where your workouts are uploaded
All items will be submitted to us at jdavis@setupevents.com Of course you will still need to load your total time into the RunSignUp portal as mentioned above.
