Timing  |
Timing for this race will be provided by Timber Hill Timing.
Everyone will start together with a gun/whistle/siren/"GO".
The finish will be chip timed. Your time and place will be taken automatically from your timing chip.
Your finish time will be calculated from the starting gun and your chip finish time to give your gun time.
All awards will be determined by gun time meaning the first person across the finish line is the winner.
You are responsible for wearing your race bib and timing chip properly!All runners must wear a timing chip on their shoe in order to receive a time and to be eligible for awards. Click here for instructions on attaching your timing chip.
Runners must wear their bib number on their chest in order to be identified in case of a timing chip failure.
Failure to wear your timing chip on your shoe or your bib number on your chest may result in a disqualification at the discretion of the Race Director or Timber Hill Timing.
Please be patient!Timber Hill Timing strives to produce accurate and timely results but like any technology it is not perfect and 100% reliable. We employ several backup measures in case the timing system is not working as planned. Depending on the issue, there may be a delay in producing the results. Accurate results will always be a higher priority than quick results. Please be patient as we work to resolve any problems that may arise at a race.
Occasionally results will not be available before you leave the race, but they will be posted on the website as soon as results can be verified.

This event is hosted by the Cumberland Valley Rails-to-Trails Council with proceeds benefiting the Cumberland Valley Rail Trail & Shippensburg Produce Outreach.
 CVRTC is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit, charitable corporation dedicated to conservation, historic preservation, recreation and alternative transportation in the Cumberland Valley of Pennsylvania through the development of multi-use trails along former railroad corridors and other areas. CVRTC owns and maintains the Cumberland Valley Rail Trail that runs 13 miles from Shippensburg to noth west of Newville and is working on extending the trail to Carlisle and south of Shippensburg.
Shippensburg Produce Outreach (SPO) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization and has grown to serve over 1500 families per month with our drive-in distribution program in addition to site deliveries to nearly 80 other residents. Our mission is to continue to meet the needs of the Shippensburg community as the cost of fresh produce continues to rise. We have developed partnerships with local agencies such as the Central PA Food Bank, Aldi of Shippensburg, Walmart, Weis, Giant, SU Farm, the Gleaning Project of South-Central PA and area farmers so that we can accept donations of excess harvest, glean fields after harvest and purchase additional produce as needed.
