Punching
As always, we will be using electronic punching at this meet, using SPORTident finger sticks. The following models are supported:
- SI-Card 5
- SI-Card 6
- SI-Card 8
- SI-Card 9
Finger sticks are available for rent at the meet. In addition, you can get a finger stick to keep all season with your season pass.
Registration
If you have a BAOC COOL season pass, your meet fee is covered. If you don't have a season pass, the regular fee applies: $3 per Junior, plus a fee for finger-stick rental.
You will also have to sign a liability release for this event in addition to the "one per season" normal BAOC COOL release.
Competitive Categories
The following courses will be used for the BAOC COOL classes:
- Elementary boys and girls – White/Yellow
- Middle School boys and girls – White/Yellow
- JV boys and girls – Short Sprint
- Varsity boys and girls – Long Sprint
The Long Sprint involves two courses, the Long 1 and the Long 2, run at separate times as noted in the Schedule above. Both courses are required for the Varsity class.
Notes
If you normally run JV and are thinking about running Varsity, this may be a good time to try it, as the navigation in an urban setting is generally easier than in the wilderness.
