We are putting our numbers on what we are wearing tomorrow quick question can you put it on either your front or back? My son in law wants his on is back would that be a problem?

Good luck for tomorrow, bibs are generally put on the front, but can also be at the back as well

I'd suggest you check the race regulations  Tessie66 . I've only ever done two events, but have noticed that quite a few races insist that bibs be worn on the front.

It really depends if there is a tag attached to it or not (it will be like a small rectangle piece of plastic on the back. If yes then its ok anywhere, if not then at the front. The rectangle transmits a small radio signal that is picked up by the rubber strips you run over and gets the times from that.

I'm too late ... but if it includes a chip for timing it should be on the front for the mats. If you're interested in buying photos, the bib number is often used to automatically find your photos, and that won't work if it's on the back.

Not what you're looking for?
