Our Turkey Trot combines the best for all levels of runners, professionally managed and timed with micro-chips, beautiful and fun course and the spirit of our Mount Vernon neighbors.

Chronotrack Timing and Scoring
Computerized timing operated by Race DC Timing (www.racedctiming.com) will be used to score the 5K. The System uses a computer tag embedded in the Bib (B-tag) and records the exact time a runner crosses the starting line and the finish line, resulting in a net time for each runner. The B-Tag is disposable. Overall awards will be based upon Gun Time and Age group awards will be based upon Net Times. Detailed instructions on the B-Tag http://www.chronotrack.com/for-athletes/b-tag-instructions/
