How does the lap count work?
We use (courtesy of The Timing Guys) an electronic timing tag system. Tags are available for $10 per person and are attached to your shoelaces. This gives you automatic counting and timing of every lap you do, as long as you are wearing the tag and walk over the Timing Belt. You can hire one for each person in your team and compete against each other, or hire one for your Team and swap it as each team member takes turns to walk or run around the track. Or you can use the “honesty system” with each team and team member counting their own laps. Teams and team members that want to win the prize for most laps should advise the officials before the relay begins. Remember, even though more than one team member can be on the track at once, only one ‘carries the baton’ to earn laps for their team.
