Race timing in Seine-Saint-Denis

It’s the question we all ask ourselves: how long does each participant take to complete their race? 🤔 That’s exactly what timing is all about—measuring the time from start to finish to establish the rankings. Long done with a handheld stopwatch, it is now electronic ⏱️. Chips attached to the bib, shoe, or bike are automatically detected on the ground as athletes pass. In practice, this system relies on timing mats equipped with RFID antennas, laid on the ground on the start line, finish line, and intermediate split points: each chip emits a unique frequency captured down to the thousandth of a second, ensuring rankings with impeccable accuracy. It’s also thanks to this that we distinguish official time (calculated from the starting signal) from net time, which only starts when you cross the line—very handy when you start at the back of the pack!

In practical terms, what does that look like?

Managing so many distances, rankings, and split points requires competent partners capable of handling everything. Seine-Saint-Denis offers a great illustration. The Voies Royales de Saint-Denis line up several formats 👑—a marathon, a half-marathon, a 10K, and a 5K—all starting from Avenue Jules Rimet for a triumphant finish on the track of the Stade de France, in the legacy of the Paris 2024 Games. The Bol d'Or Vélo Paris, for its part, plays the endurance card 🚴, with 24 hours of cycling solo or in relay on a closed 2.055 km loop, reviving at the gates of the capital a cycling legend born in Paris in 1894. As for the AéroRun Paris, it’s time for something unusual ✈️: a timed 10K and a 2.5 km walk on the tarmac of Paris–Le Bourget Airport, where usually only planes take off, in support of Aviation Sans Frontières. These events trust us with managing their registrations. It’s this reliability that reassures organizers and secures every result, race after race 💪.
