ROGERS UPDATES

As in motorsports there are allotted time sanctions or what is called a stop-and-go penalty for in-race infractions. The infraction in this race is a 5 second penalty for each stop within 100 yards.

The Drive Sled 500

• Athlete #1 is to push the Rogers Drive Sled 100 yards for time, while his competitor athlete #2 rides on the sled.

• Any time an athlete stops during the 100 yard push there is a 5 second penalty to be added to the total time of that race.

• The total number of stops for all 5 races are counted and added up.

• How long the athlete stops is not timed, as the stop-and-go penalty is always 5 seconds even if the athlete stops for 1 second or 60 seconds.

• Once athlete #1 crosses the 100 yard mark the total time is collected and athlete #2 immediately begins a 100 yard sled drive.

• Each athlete must complete 5, 100 yard races.

The Competition

• The goal is to come in first in at least 3 out of the 5 races.

• Have fewer total stops adding up all the stops in 5 races.

• Have the best total time adding up all the times of the 5 races, which includes adding all of the 5 second penalties,
