CUTOFF TIMES & SEEDING
Seed times can be submitted from January of 2022 and can be edited by event staff up to registration closing for the event. For this meet we do have cutoff times for entry to ensure the meet moves smoothly and in a quick fashion. Seed times will be what divides heats. Heat sizes and numbers will depend on number of entries. If you are in a state that runs 1500m, 1600m or 3000m please make a reasonable conversion to the mile and 3200m.
