Is there time registration?
Only the ASML Marathon Eindhoven (ASML Marathon, ASML Half Marathon, Quarter Marathon, BrabantSport City Run, and Kids Run) will be timed. An electronic chip is located on the back of your bib number. Draag je startnummer correct om je tijd geregistreerd te krijgen.

Information to ensure good time registration:

  • Wear your starting number visibly on your chest. Do not cover the bib number with a jacket or with your hands while passing the mats at the start and finish line. These mats pick up the signal from your chip (Also be careful when pressing your own stopwatch at the start and finish line).
  • Do not fold or wrinkle the bib number. Certainly not where the chip is.
  • Use four pins on the corners of the bib number, do not drill through the chip.
  • Do not remove the plastic spacer.
  • You can keep the bib number as a souvenir or throw it away with the normal waste (plastic).

What is the official time?

The gun time is the official time. This starts when the starting shot is given and stops when you cross the finish line. The net time is the time that starts when you cross the mat on the starting line and stops when you cross the finish line. The net time/chip time is stated as an extra service.

Where are the toilets located?
Toilets are available in the start and finish area. There are toilets along the route. View the toilet locations here.

Where can I find my results?
The results will be published on this page after the event. You will also receive the link to the results page by email after the event. Please note: the gun time is the official time. Do you have a question or comment about your result? Please send an email to ChronoRace, stating your bib number and any times you may have clocked yourself.
