Each runner carries a timing unit actuable upon passing within a predetermined distance of the first transmitter. At another location is a second transmitter and as each runner passes within a predetermined distance the respective timing units are stopped. A read-out means is provided for having each timing unit connected thereto at the end of the event for obtaining the time elapsed.
