Greetings!

We are expecting a great meet for tomorrow's Bullis Invitational! We have over 1,500 athletes entered and are excited to host you all! In order to accommodate everyone, while at the same be done at a decent hour, we have made several adjustments. PLEASE READ THEM ALL below so as to be prepared for the day.

Seeded and Unseeded Sections

We will run seeded and unseeded sections for all sprint and sprint relay races. To speed up the meet blocks will be used in the SEEDED sections ONLY. No blocks will be slowed in the unseeded sections (so please do not ask)! Athletes CAN medal, score, AND make finals from the unseeded sections. There is NO FINAL for unseeded section races, however an athlete CAN make the final from an unseeded heat. There will be a 2-SECTION FINAL for the 100m Dash and 200m/110m hurdles. 

Weather

We are checking the weather on the hour.  In the event of rain, we will still contest all events. If however thunderstorms come in the area our weather horn will sound and we will be on a 30-minute delay for safety purposes.  Once the horn sounds spectators will be asked to return to their vehicles. Athletes and Coaches will be allowed to enter the Bullis Athletic Center and congregate in one of the two gymnasiums. IF WE GO ON A WEATHER DELAY UPDATES WILL BE POSTED AT THE TOP OF THE MILESPLIT MEET HOME PAGE (ABOVE)! 

Scratches 

We will take scratches up into the morning of the meet. The more you send the more we can condense heats! Please send all scratches directly to our meet timer (Morgan) at morgan@mdtimingllc.com.

Declaration

In order to eliminate empty lanes and starting positions COACHES MUST DECLARE their athletes for ALL TRACK EVENTS! There are NO exceptions! The declaration window is 3 HOURS BEFORE the event's start and ends 1 HOUR BEFORE the event's start. That means there is If you miss the declaration window your athlete WILL BE SCRATCHED from the event! 

NOTE: Because we are under a declaration process THERE WILL BE NO ADVANCE HEAT SHEETS. Heat sheets will be available online once the declaration process closes for the event (approximately 30 minutes prior to competition).

400

The seeded sections of the 400 will be run in lanes. All unseeded section will be a California start (just like Penn Relays). 

Sprint Medley & 4x4

The Sprint Medley will run 4,2,2,8 with a waterfall start (same as Penn Relays). The 4x4 will be run the same way. One turn stagger, break on the backstretch. 

800, 1600, & 3200

The seeded 800 & 1600 will be run with a ONE-TURN stagger (break on the backstretch). All other races will be run as a TWO-TURN stagger (break on the homestretch). The 3200 will be run with a TWO-TURN stagger.  The fields will be large so this helps space out the runners before they break. The break will happen AFTER the second turn (start of the 100).

Thanks and See You Tomorrow!
