A prediction run is a race where the winner isn’t the fastest runner — it’s the person who best predicts their own finish time. Anyone can win! Just get closest to your predicted finish time. The chip time will be recorded as the official finish time. To be eligible for this award category, you must enter a predicted time on your application. The use of watches or timing devices will be considered an unfair advantage to win the prediction category, and the participant will be disqualified from winning the prediction prize. Racers wearing watches are still eligible for all other awards. 🏆 Awards & Competitions 🏆 We want to focus on the spirit of the event, Joe Cain & Mardi Gras. There will be no age group awards, we are ready to party, cheer. 🏃‍♂️ Closest Predicted Time Anyone can win! When you register, enter your predicted finish time.
