Live results tracking via web. My info is pre-populated ;) I have the start time of 10:15. You can track up to 20 runners. Also available are apps for Apple and Android. Don't forget to check out the course map and leader board. Keep a close watch on the leader board as that is where the exciting stuff happens! As the race picks up heat and the top competitors make their moves you can see from mile to mile how the leader board changes.

Looking forward to a race to remember forever!
