Meet Information

NEW THIS YEAR:
Chip timing! Lap splits for every athlete will be included in the results.

Why Fern Creek Relays?
FUN early-season event (Runners love relays!)
UNLIMITED ENTRIES at no additional expense
LOTS OF AWARDS
LOW PRESSURE (no team scores kept)

RELAY FORMAT:
Pair up your runners in teams of two.
You may enter an UNLIMITED NUMBER OF RELAY TEAMS.
Partners take turns running a loop of the park (1600 meters for high school, 800 meters for middle school). Each partner completes the loop three times (for a total of 4800 meters for high school and 2400 meters for middle school). Runners slap hands for the exchange, so no batons are needed.
When the second runner completes the loop for the third time, he/she will run through the finish chute.
If you have an odd number of runners, have the extra runner start each leg with a teammate of similar ability.

ENTRY FEE:
Early (postmarked by August 1, 2015): $50.00 per high school team and $25.00 per middle school team (boys and girls teams from the same school are considered separate teams).
Late (postmarked after August 1, 2015 or paid on race day): $60.00 per high school team and $35.00 per middle school team (boys and girls teams from the same school are considered separate teams).
Make checks payable to FERN CREEK CROSS COUNTRY.
