![]() In September, PRS Race Timing set up a Nease High School band fundraising run in Nocatee, aptly titled "Band on the Run." On National Donut Day in June, PRS Race Timing put together a relay race where all team members had to eat four donuts and then run a mile with their three-person teams. "Each individual, regardless of how old or what their goal times are, will feel like part of a family, almost like part of a tribe." Whether it be your first 5K or your 10th marathon, you'll get a personal experience," McRae said. "When I create an event, I try to put together a unique experience for everyone. McRae said that he's happy with the forte that the duo have found in local running circles, insisting that larger race timing companies take the personal touch out of community footraces. It just made sense," said McRae, a 40-year Jacksonville resident, president of PRS Running Solutions and coach of the 300-member PRS Running Club. Now, the company has found its niche by catering to smaller local races and area fundraisers, dealing with sundry themes from firecrackers to beer. "It just kind of all came together, and it's taken off - pardon the pun," he added. "We thought we'd set up and do a few races per year, but in fact we've had a much bigger response than we initially thought we would," Reimer said. The company is up and running, hosting more than 15 races this year since its launch. Reimer and partner Paul McRae started PRS Race Timing in March. ![]() More Information: For more information, please contact UNG head women's cross country coach Tom Williams at or (404) 906-5265.By Amanda Durish runner Matthew Reimer says that he and his partner's latest business venture was a product of "right place, right time."
