No competitor will be eligible for GP awards in walking and running divisions. They must elect one or the other. Races must be sponsored by an official RRCA Arkansas club to be eligible for participation in the GP series. The club must actively participate in the administration of the race and receive tangible benefit from the race. Over 5K, competitors must have racing chairs.
Proper helmets are mandatory.
In races where there are 3 or more racers in the open category or 3 or more racers in the junior category, finish chutes must be opened or widened in order to accommodate a close finish and avoid injury in the finish chute. Wheelchairs shall start 1 minute before other competitors. All disputes shall be submitted to the LDR Committee in writing, subject to review and a decision by the Committee. All decisions of the LDR Committee will be final. Since there is the theoretical possibility that 2 competitors in the same age division might run in 5 different state championships and score the maximum number of points, competitors would be advised to remember that tiebreakers still consist of comparing competitors total points in state championships, first, and if the tie is still unbroken, then comparative scores in head to head competition.
