Organiser's description
WE'RE KICKING OFF ANOTHER NEW YEAR WITH A LITTLE FUN!
WHAT'S A PREDICTION RUN? A prediction run requires you to predict how long it will take you to complete our 1 or 3-mile (depending on the distance you select) route. It's not about how fast you finish or even finishing first, the object of a prediction run is to finish as close to your predicted time as possible. When you register, you will provide a target finishing time for the distance you select. When you arrive, you're "race bib" will have the predicted time on it. You will have an opportunity to modify the time on event morning, if necessary.
NO GADGETS! Leave your gadgets at home, please. They are not allowed on the course during the race. NOTE: If you want to still record your miles, we will have non-clear tape that will be required to cover your watch.
WILL THERE BE WINNERS? Yes! There will be prizes for the Top 3 Winners. But for the Prediction Run, the winners are those that finish closest to his/her/their predicted time.
Prediction Run/Walk will be followed by breakfast at Fleet Feet Fox Valley (3404 W College Avenue, just a few blocks south of our meeting place)
