Chip Timing with ChronoTrack:

The 2010 Lost Dutchman Races will be chip timed! The Lost Dutchman Marathon and Raceplace Events are proud to announce the implementation of ChronoTrack chip timing for all 2010 events. ChronoTrack is a road racing innovation using disposable tags “D-Tags” and simplifying the timing process for athletes. The inexpensive disposable tags shorten pre-race bib pick up lines and eliminate all collection of tags or chips after the race. As a runner you will have more time to focus on competing and enjoying the event! D-Tags attach easily to your shoe and are far lighter and less intrusive than other timing tags and chips. Once attached, you will quickly forget that it is even there!

Aid Stations:

Marathon Aid Stations: There are aid stations every 2 miles on the marathon course for the first 20 miles and then an aid station every mile to the finish. There are port-a-jons near every aid station.  HEED lemon lime will be available at every other aid station starting at marathon mile 4. Hammer Gel (vanilla or raspberry) will be at miles 10 and 18 on the marathon course only. Bananas will be at 4 aid stations.

Half Marathon and 10K Aid Stations: For the 10K and Half Marathon courses there are aid stations every mile with water at every aid station and HEED Lemon Lime Sports Drink at every other aid station.  There are port-a-jons near every aid station.

8K Aid Stations: For the 8K trail race there is one aid station that all runners will pass twice. There are port-a-jons near every aid station.

Aid stations are staffed by our tremendous volunteers without whom our event could not happen. Please thank them along the way.
