Electronic Punching
The event uses the SPORTident (SI) punching system. You ‘punch’ by inserting your SI‐card into the hole in the top of the unit at each control site. The unit confirms that your punch has registered by bleeping and flashing a red light. This happens almost instantaneously. If in doubt, punch again. Do not worry if the unit bleeps more than once.
