AWARDS

All finishers within the official 12-hour time-limit (14-hour time-limit for those officially entered in the 5:00 a.m. start) will receive a beautiful, uniquely designed JFK 50 mile finisher’s medallion immediately after crossing the finish line. The top 10 men and women as well as the first male and female in the following age divisions (19-and-under, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79 and 80-and-over) will be recognized at the awards ceremony, set for 4:30 p.m. in the Springfield Middle School Gymnasium.

TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS

Team Championship Awards will be presented to the top scoring (based on total time) Men’s and Women’s Teams. A team can consist of up to five of the same sex, but only the first three finishers will be scored. Team entries will be made after the individual field has been set, after September 1, 2011.

MILITARY TEAM COMPETITION

The first five finishers of the same military branch (from the same Military Base or Academy) will have their combined times tallied. The low time-score will take home the “Kennedy Cup”. Teams can consist of as many as ten entrants (of either sex). Team entries will be made after the individual field has been set, after September 1, 2011.

PRIZE MONEY

Cash awards will be presented to the top five male and female finishers (lst = $600, 2nd = $400, 3rd = $250, 4th = $150, 5th = $100) with an additional $500 bonus for the establishment of a new men’s or women’s course record.
