Jacksonville Grand Prix 2010
The Children's Way 5K is the 3rd race on the Jacksonville Grand Prix series. The JGP consists of Jacksonville's best 17 running events. These races have accurately measured courses, ChampionChip timing, overall and age group awards, nice t-shirts and excellent post-race celebrations. If you run a Jacksonville Grand Prix race you can rest assured that you are running a high quality event. Overall winners and finishers in the top ten of their age group will receive points. These points are accumulated through out the series to determine the winners of over $2,000 in prize money and age group awards.
Race Timing
The race will be timed using the ChampionChip (chip must be worn on your shoe during the race). Your entry fee covers the cost of the chip rental. If you have your own chip, you need to enter your chip number on the entry form, and deduct $2.00 from the entry fee. You must cross the timing mats to be included in the results. Do not wear your personal chip if you sign up on raceday!
Awards
Awards to the top three male and female finishers in each of the following age divisions: 10 & under, 11-13, 14-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80 and over. Top Male and Female Overall, Masters and Grand Masters will also be awarded.
