| Awards info: |
Awards are given to the top 3 individuals and teams in each category. Overall individual winners are not eligible to receive age group awards in addition to overall awards. Teams must have a minimum of 4 members. Team placing is based on the cumulative time of the first 4 team members to cross the finish line.
Cumulative time for CO-ED teams is based on the first four finishers that include both genders. This means that a CO-ED team whose first four finishers are all male will drop the time of the fourth male finisher and include the time of their fastest female finisher.
All walk teams are open and the first 4 finishers are scored. |
