    Default What is the best timing equipment for small races?

    Hi, i want to start organizing 5k to 10k races in Ecuador for charity with a max for 1000 runners. I dont know much about this industry but i am trying to do all the research i can and there is very little info out there. My only experience is a runner. What is the best equipment you would recommend? . Some of the best systems i have found within my budget are: The Lite box from ipico or bib tag system from mylaps.

    Any thoughts? I am open to other brands as well.
    thanks -maria

    Default Jaguar Timing Systems

    I have a Silver Package Jaguar Timing System that is only 1 1/2 years old with many extras (extra scaffolding, generator, hard cases). I know there was a number of inquiries and research done before buying it so I know its a top quality system. It is listed for sale on Craigslist Philadelphia and will be priced right if interested.

    Default Free Timing Software

    Hey-

    I wrote an application for this specific purpose. Since I use it for charity runs with around 500+ runners, I figured I would just give it away for free.

    I suggest you download it and try it out before you spend thousands on timing hardware for a charity event. I added in the ability to display a large race clock (I hook up an external monitor to my laptop... about 36") while timing.

    Anyway, like I said... its free so doesn't hurt to try it out. And I'm always taking suggestions for improving the software.

    Thanks!
    Justin
