3.  Applicants will get their confirmation within 7 working days of registration closure or on or before 4th October 2022, whichever is earlier. 

4. Applicants can submit timing certificates of only those events wherein Race promoters/organizers need to follow the below mentioned guidelines, for timing certificates of their races to be considered under confirmation criteria. Where any of the guidelines are not followed by a promoter/organizer, or where there are many issues/complaints relating to timing, distance or technical conduct of the race, Procam may at its sole discretion, not accept the timing certificates of such running events. Decision of Procam in this regard will be final and binding.

Ii. The course is measured either by an accredited World Athletics/AIMS measurer using the calibrated bicycle method http://aims-worldrunning.org/measurement/MeasurementOfRoadRaceCourses.pdf OR by a local state athletic association representative using a GPS measurement device. Measurement by GPS device has been found to underestimate course length by approximately 400m over a marathon distance so the target reading for a GPS-measured marathon should be 1% more than the advertised distance, i.e., 42.62 km. Equivalent GPS device target lengths for other race distances would be: 25km – 25.25km & Half Marathon – 21.31km. The measurement report must be uploaded onto the official website of the event. The measurement report must be uploaded on the respective event’s website.
