Checkpoint Recorder Instructions

ON RACE DAY and POST-RACE

The top 100 numbers and select times are used for verifying that award winners (and other top finishers) have indeed run the full course. A minimum of seven people is assigned to each checkpoint. Your team captain will assign teams to record wheelchair athlete, male or female bib numbers, or times. Number and Time Sheets are enclosed for recording men (blue), women (pink) and wheelchair (yellow) information.

1. RECORDING BIB NUMBERS

One person "calls" out bib numbers, the second person writes them down. Numbers must be written down in the order the runners pass your checkpoint. Note: Please be sure to write down "F" in front of women's numbers. This year the women's elite division numbers are F1 through F100, and the elite women masters' numbers are F101 through F150.

After recording the top 15 numbers, hand the sheet to your team captain and continue recording through the 100th runner. For wheelchairs record top five men and five women only, then give to your team captain. Note: should several of the top 15 athletes be running in a pack (a close group with three or more runners beside and/or behind each other, sometimes obscuring each others number), record them as accurately in order as you can, and note that they are "in a pack". Do not leave out any numbers if possible.

2. RECORDING TIMES

One person "calls" out the times, the second person writes them down. Times must be written down as the runners pass the exact location of your checkpoint.

After recording the top 15 times, hand the sheet to your team captain and start recording "select times", i.e., write down the number of a runner coming up to your checkpoint, then add the time when he passes the checkpoint (again, one person calls, the second person writes). Record as many as possible, every fifth or sixth number would be great. For wheelchairs record top five men and five women only, then give to your team captain

3. CALL-IN TO PRESS ROOM

Once the top 15 numbers and times are recorded, the team captain transposes the times onto the number sheet, while a second volunteer establishes a telephone connection with the press room. The team captain then reads both place, bib number and time to the person taking the information in the press room. The same procedure is in effect for the top five wheelchair men and women. At the time of calling in, also report any extra-ordinary circumstances that may prevent you from doing your job.

After 1:15 p.m. (real time) men's information may also be called in on the men's wheelchair telephone number (617-375-9853), and women's information on the women's wheelchair number (617-375-9854). Please make sure to identify that you are calling in information on the OPEN race, NOT the wheelchair race.

When calling in please state the following:

a.	Your checkpoint location (e.g., 5M, 10M, 15M, 20M AND 25M)
b.	The division you're calling in (e.g. wheelchair men, men's open)
c.	Bib number, then time for each runner

COMPLETION AND RETURN

Once the top 100 men and women have been recorded, match the bib numbers from the select timing sheets with those on the bib number sheets, and transpose times onto the bib number sheets.
The team captain collects all sheets and is responsible for returning all information to the BAA Office.

BIB NUMBER INFORMATION

Numbers on front and back are worn by:

Men	Open Division	numbers 1 - 200	blue background
Men	Masters Division	numbers 501 - 520	blue background
Women	Open Division	numbers F1 - F00	white background
Women	Masters Division	numbers F101 - F150	white background

Make sure to record "F" when writing down numbers.

NOTE: We have done our best to assign all top athletes within the above number breakdown, however, late entries in any of the above divisions may be numbered between 1000 and 1999, or higher. Please record full number. All numbers have a blue background!

Wheelchair	Men numbers	W1 - W100 (all blue)
Wheelchair	Women numbers	W101 - W125 (all blue with pink dot)

All wheelchair numbers start with a W, which is already filled in on your checkpoint sheets. For your information Quad Class athlete numbers have a blue background, however they are anticipated to be farther back in the field and as such would not have to be recorded.

NOTE: Wheelchair athletes will also have the digits of their bib number displayed on their helmets: in front of the helmet (when the athlete is in "tuck "or "racing" position) and on the right and left side of the helmet! The digits will also be posted on the frame of the chair, just in front of the right wheel (visible from the side). The wheelchair women's helmet and chair numbers also will have a pink background.

All bibs display adidas at the top, and 2005 BOSTON MARATHON name and blue logo at the bottom. All official numbers this year have either a blue or red background - this is different from previous years.

Also, see the 2005 Elite Field List below.

Timing Information

WBZ Radio (1030 AM) will be provided with real-time audio of the Starting Gun for the Wheelchair, Women's Elite, and Open Race starts. You may start your watches at the sound of each of the three start tones for the Wheelchair start at 11:25 a.m., the Elite women's start at 11:31 AM and for the Elite Men's and Main Race at 12 Noon. It is important that you start a minimum of three watches at the WBZ radio tones.

2005 BOSTON MARATHON Checkpoint Volunteers

HELPFUL HINTS FOR RECORDING

WORK AS A TEAM! The captains are encouraged to introduce themselves to other volunteers at the checkpoint, such as mile marker holders and clock attendants, who are willing to assist. Although these individuals also perform a very vital task, they may be willing to become an extra set of eyes for your team. There is time for the wheelchair recorders to help the men and women recorders, and vice versa. Make notes on scratch paper, help spot numbers, and politely ask spectators to stay on the side (out of your point of sight). Have those persons with good eyesight spot and the neat writers write!
Bring a radio (WBZ, AM 1030), it will give you an idea as to whether the first runners are nearing your checkpoint (especially helpful when the first female comes along); it may even provide you with names of people in the lead pack (a list of top competitors and their numbers will be given to the team captain to help you look up some of the numbers to expect up front.)
Bring binoculars, video or camcorders, Polaroid cameras, voice recorders, cellular phones (for emergencies, all if available). They may help you distinguish some numbers prior to the athletes passing your checkpoint (binoculars) or after they have passed. Check with your team captain if you have any of these devices available as not all team members have to bring them.
When calling out numbers, break down into single digits, i.e., 1059 should be called as one-oh-five-nine rather than ten-fifty nine. Only one person should be calling out numbers at the time to prevent confusion to the writer (to "call" out a number or time, means to speak loud enough for the writer to hear, the runners do not have to hear you).
Be aware that several vehicles will precede the race (lead car, photo truck, clock car, and TV pick-up truck). They may impede your range of vision. Position yourself to allow for this concern.
Expect some interference from other surveillance groups (television stations, radio, other), however, your responsibility is to get the information to the BAA pressroom as quickly and accurately as possible.
Please make a note of "unusual" occurrences, e.g., someone running with last year's number or that from another race, a man running with a woman's number (or vice versa), a 20-year old running with a masters number, someone entering the course from the side, etc.
Also, be aware that up to 8 handcycles will participate. Please do not confuse them with the pushrim wheelchair athletes. Also, at 10 a.m. 4 mobility impaired aided athletes will begin the race.
Note that all handcycle, wheelchair and mobility impaired athletes have been instructed to move to the left-hand side of the road and continue moving forward on that side, when they are approached by a course vehicle and once passed by that vehicle. Foot racers always have the right-of-way over other division participants.
Athletes wanting to drop out of the race should be directed to the nearest Red Cross station. Should an elite athlete (orange dot on bib) want to drop out at your checkpoint, please walk the athlete to the nearest Red Cross station or callChris Pistel at 617-548-5391, and report the bib number and your location.
Ham radio operators continuously cover the area between Red Cross stations by foot, and will be able to help when they pass your checkpoint.

Checkpoint Locations

Map showing approximate location of 20-mile checkpoint

Location: The 20-mile checkpoint is in Newton on Commonwealth Ave. E of Centre St., opposite E end of front door to residence #615 on left, 20 ft. 3 in. after east edge of B E Co. road cover, 13 ft. before leading edge of single car garage on right, and 40 ft. 4 in. before pedestrian warning sign on right. Click on the map above to view details.

I captured these images of the 20-mile checkpoint location one week before the marathon. The 20M was painted in yellow on the road. Click on the images to enlarge.

The 20m checkpoint is just east of the intersection of Commonwealth Ave. and Centre St. in Newton.

Looking west from the 20m checkpoint

The orange cone is on the right side of Commonwealth Ave. The green house across the street is #615 Commonwealth Ave.

L ooking east toward the 20M checkpoint.

Driving: To drive to the checkpoint from Route 128, take Route 9 east, (toward Boston). You'll pass the Elliott MBTA stop. You'll pass the Getty Gas, Dunkin Donuts, Speedy Muffler shop on your right. Look for the exit to Centre Street on your right and take that exit. It'll pass under Route 9. Stay on Centre St for 1.5 miles. Take a right onto Commonwealth Ave. The 20M is on Commonwealth Ave. It's less than 1/10 mile from the intersection of Centre St. and Commonwealth Ave.

Parking: The 20-mile checkpoint is less than 3/4 miles from the Newton Centre stop on the MBTA (Green) D-Line. If you are going to drive, I would recommend approaching from Route 9, which is south of Commonwealth Ave., and park on Rice or Sumner Streets.
