Race Timing in the Tarn

It’s the question we all ask ourselves: how long does each participant take to complete their race? 🤔 That’s the whole point of timing, which measures the time from start to finish to produce the rankings. Long done with a stopwatch by hand, it’s now electronic ⏱️. Chips attached to the bib, shoe, or bike are automatically detected on the ground as you pass. In practice, this system relies on timing mats equipped with RFID antennas, laid on the ground at the start line, finish line, and intermediate checkpoints: 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 start signal) from real time, which only starts when you cross the line—very handy when you’re starting at the back of the pack!

In practical terms, what does that look like?
