Gun Time - Is the official race time and is the time that the runner takes to complete the course from the time the gun was fired.
Chip Time - Is the time that the runner actually takes from the time they crossed the start line to the time they crossed the finish line.
As far as the rules of athletics are concerned the Gun Time is the important time, and this is what the results and prizes are based on, otherwise the race becomes a time trail where the winner need not be the first person to cross the finish line.
We are however able and willing to if requested by the race organizers, make the chip time the official results and awards. |
