Organiser's Description
Think you can keep a steady pace, or are you too reliant on your watch? Test your pacing skills at the Catch Your Time Prediction Run!
As part of the NWI Cross Country Preview Event we're inviting all NWI high school cross country athletes to compete in this FREE, fun, and friendly competition to see who has the best internal clock.
Catch Your Time is a 1.5 mile time prediction run where each athlete must predict their finishing time, then run the route with no watch, phone, or other time tracking device. Whoever finishes closest to their predicted time wins. The only indication of your time will be the two race clocks on course that are only visible right as you pass the halfway point and after you finish the route. This run event is for incoming and returning high school cross country athletes in the NWI Region only
