Marathon tracking system

[tres]

I've found a few places online that hire out systems to monitor and track marathon runners (we have one every year for Cystic Fibrosis Trust)- the track is 7.5 times round the island in a figure of "8"

System comprises of a RFID tag thing and the runners run over one of two tracking mats to record half lap times, positions etc

But, i can't remember the sites, or what i searched for

Anyone know what i'm talking about, and if so, where i can hire the systems?

I'm not sure if it will give you lap times, but Nike Plus sounds like it could tick some boxes.

You obviously need to buy the kit, not hire it, but a friend of mine has it and it comes highly recommended if you're into running.

thanks chief, but looking at a larger scale - we have 130 runners, and wanted a system to collate realtime data as they run
