hi everybody

[amit]

hi, i have read that this is a gun to gun event (old mutual two oceans marathon).

being a slow runner i shall be starting at the fag end of the pack and it might be a few minutes before i reach the start line. so will they not look at the chip timings to calculate the 7 hours. if God runs the race for me, i might just finish in 6:59:59. i cannot afford to loose those minutes at the start. so can somebody explain whether it is 7 hours of net time or just total time from the gun

thanks
amit
