IMRS PACER PROGRAM
The Irving Marathon Running Series Pacer Program brings a team of experienced runners from the Irving Running Club and other volunteers to help runners achieve their goals at IMRS races. They are an invaluable asset to runners attempting to complete a specific distance or want to accomplish a specific finish time. They are responsible for ensuring that the participants maintain a steady pace throughout the race, providing motivation and encouragement, and offering advice on maintaining hydration and fuel during the run. Pacers play a significant role in making long-distance races possible and more enjoyable for participants. They are one of the many reasons why running a race can be an unforgettable experience. We are grateful for our IMRS Pacers who volunteer at our events. It takes a village!!
Pacers are available for all marathon and half marathon distances.
Marathon Times: 3:10, 3:20, 3:30, 3:40, 3:50, 4:00, 4:10, 4:20, 4:30, 5:00, 5:30, 6:00

- The Emcees will call Top Finishers Overall, Masters, and Team Challenge winners on The Main Stage.
- Age Group Medals will be handed out at the Awards Table by The Main Stage.
- Top Finishers Overall & Masters receive trophies and/or plaques only and not an additional age group medal; that’s called double-dipping.
