Competition Timing |
The event will be scored using the IPICO electronic timing system. Your time will start and finish once you cross the reading mat at each location.
For the team competition, the timing piece will be something you transfer from one team member to the next. The last person on the team must have the timing piece on him/her as they cross the finish line to get an accurate time.
For the individual competition, the timing piece will be secured to the person the entire course.
