Timing Information

Fitting your timing transponder (chip)

Silverstone Race Circuit was the venue for some fast and furious racing this evening with Votwo Events. All but one of the competitors completed the 2 mile/ 10 mile/ 2 mile course at the Votwo Silverstone Duathlon.

We could be forgiven for thinking it's only DB Max Events races that get bad weather. Sunshine all morning today for a beautiful lake swim to kick off the TriFerris SIS Super Sprint Triathlon in the Cotswold Water Park. A total of 252 people took part in the Sprint and Novice events.

Well we didn't get the weather this year at Mallory Park, but with some hastily rearranged race courses as a result of cold water, the Mallory Park Duathlons were born.

TriStar, Youth, Novice and Sprint Duathlons as well as the Prostate UK Rowathlon, made up a busy day of racing for around 200 people. 

Glorious weather and a superb venue for an early season open water triathlon today at Hyde Park. Over 165 people took part in the The SPW Hyde Park Triathlon helping to raise money for good causes along the way. 

After a pleasant morning building towards race start, the heavens opened during racing at the Gloucester 20 Road Run. It didn't stop 504 people completing the course though with gun time and chip time to prove it!

245 people ran at the EAS Castle Combe 10k on November 23rd and were quickly followed by 423 competitors in the Trybike Chilly Duathlon.

So a busy day at the office, both for DB Max Events and for DB Max Precision Timing, but the team worked superbly well and the full set of results is available above. The bike lap splits proved very popular for the athletes and of the 420 competitors that crossed the finish line, only one cycled too many laps (6) and only one cycled too few (4). The bike lap timing looks set to prove very useful in confirming lap count for all our future races at Castle Combe and Mallory Park and also at the Palmer Park cycle track in Reading.

We had planned to produce lap splits for the all runners in the EAS 10k too, but unfortunately most of the runners ran straight over the cones that were supposed to guide them over the timing point. 16 runners took the correct route for every lap though and their lap splits are available above.  We are currently building an even longer timing loop (20m) and all being well with testing, will use that one for our Castle Combe 10k on March 1st 2009.

Next outing for DB Max Precision Timing is the Gloucester 20 Mile Road Race on Sunday March 8th.

262 people turned out to race on the grass and in the mud with TriFerris Promotions today and DB Max Precision Timing were on hand to time the event. With two consecutive races over two separate distances, there was plenty to keep the spectators entertained and with all the passings detected from every competitor, a comprehensive set of results was produced.

Next weekend is going to be a busy one, as we time both the EAS 'Chilly' 10k and the Trybike 'Chilly Duathlon' at Castle Combe. 

A wet and windy day on the south coast in Bexhill, didn't deter almost 300 runners from turning out for the Bexhill Poppy Half Marathon on Sunday 9th November. DB Max Precision Timing were there to time the race, providing full instant results including lap times for the 284 finishers (see above).

Great event organised for charity by Paul and Lee Holdaway and their team and we're proud to say we achieved 100% detection once again for all runners completing the course with one of our nifty little transponders strapped to their ankle. Next week we're heading off to the Cirencester Off-Road Duathlon with Tri Ferris Promotions.
