Pacific Multisports uses the latest technology to produce accurate times for each participant. Each race number comes with a pre-inserted timing chip. When participants cross over the start mat, their individual time begins ticking and then automatically stops when they cross over the finish line mat. Real-Time results are available as soon as the race begins @pacificmultisports.com.

  • The top 3 male, female, and non-binary in each race receive an award.
