The inner track will all be timed with manual backup, the fastest 8 times will be chosen for the final. (Hurdles and 60m) All times will be published. 

As running events are timed, it is essential that you put 100% in to your run/sprint. Empty the tank. You may win your heat but not qualify if your heat is a slow one.

I will collect the race numbers (Tom). Please bring safety pins. I am bound to forget. 

I will also have race singlets with me. Remember €4 per event
