Bibs with Timing by Laurel
The HEBER Half Marathon, 5K, and All-Abilities 1/2 Mile Run will be professionally timed by Laurel Timing. The chips will be attached to the back of your bib number. Please don’t wrinkle or stuff the bib in your pocket.
The Top Three Overall Male and Female finishers will be determined by gun time (regular timing). The Age Group awards will be determined by using Chip Time.
- GUN Time is the time elapsed from the sound of the gun to the finish line.
- CHIP Time is the real time from when the runner crosses the starting line to crossing the finish line.
Check out all of the HEBER 2026 RESULTS, PAST RESULTS, and HEBER COURSE RECORDS to see if you made the Top 10 Leaderboard!
Note: If you alter or damage your chip, your time may not be read correctly. Wear your bib on the outermost layer of clothing.
Print Your Race Results Card at the Laurel Timing “BROOKSEE” Black Tent
After your race, head to the Laurel Timing’s black BROOKSEE tent near the Awards stage to print your personalized Runtastic TIMP results card. It’s a great keepsake to remember your race achievement!
You can also access your results card on the Runtastic Events app under “My Races” or on the RESULTS page.
Run with the RYR PACERS
The Run Your Race (RYR) Pacers will be pacing the Half Marathon runners to help them achieve a new PR!
To run with a pace group, look for the pacer holding up a sign with the finishing time you want to achieve on it. The overall time listed will get faster as you get closer to the starting line.
