Master's Mile Entry Procedure
and Day of Meet Procedure

2008 will mark the first year that we will have the Master's Mile at the Glenn D. Loucks Games. The races will be held on Thursday May 8th, following the completion of the high school Distance Medley Relays (approximately 6:30 PM). Our new facility includes an 8-lane Mondo track, stadium and lights.

• Races will be by gender

• Heats will be determined by age groups (30-39 / 40-49 / 50+) and then by seed times

• Results will be determined by age groups, with medals given to the top 3 finishers in each age group.

• Our famed Loucks trophy (pictured above) will be given to the top overall finisher for each gender (thus, there will be only two trophies, one male and one female, presented - the top time of the night (one for each gender) will receive the trophy).

• Spikes: use of pyramid spikes up to 1/4" is permissible.

3. Check your name on the sheet for your race (if your name is not checked it is assumed that you are scratching and you will not be allowed to participate).
4. After checking in, get your number and pins.
5. There will be high school Distance Medleys running - under no circumstances will you be allowed to warm up on the track prior to the start of your races.
6. After the heats are set up you will be called to the clerk's tent to receive your heat, lane assignments and hip number(s).
