Final Schedule:
We are looking to provide pacers for the the top 5,000m sections of both men and women. Pacers will be paid based on the assigned pace and how far they go. Pacers should always be coordinated with the meet director, in part to ensure all participants in a given race have access to the same information.
Athletes interested in pacing should email the meet director at leslie.sexton@gmail.com
