Timing
The LA Classic Turkey Trot will be chip-timed.
We will be using the single use MYLAPS Bib Tag this year.
Please ensure the following in order to receive an accurate time:
- Race bib is clearly visible on the front of the torso
- Race bib is unaltered and unmodified (Do not fold or wrinkle)
- Race bib is pinned in all four corners
- Race bib is not covered (jackets, runner belts, water bottles, etc.)
- Bib tag is not altered
Please do not remove your number until you have gone completely through the chute. Numbers are not interchangeable among runners. After you have crossed the finish line, continue moving to the edge of the roped off area.
Incorrect placement of bibs can results in a tag not reading correctly - if this is the case, it is at the discretion of our timer to assist with updating your results on-site. If said correction positions you in your age group, you will not be allowed to place if the age group medals have already been handed out.
Results will be posted online throughout the race.
