If you believe you will finish the Half Marathon in over 2 hours and 30 minutes, proof of time is not required. Start group placement is based on your anticipated finish time and start group capacities. Proof of time is not required for the 5K and 10K races.
Please note that if you submit a proof of time from an alternate race distance, an industry standard calculation will be applied to equate your finish time.
