German term

zeitversetzt

German to English Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation Tourism
Es ist einer der schönsten Landschaftsläufe, den man in Süddeutschland absolvieren kann.

Zeitversetzt startet der Hammerwerk Fridingen Walking-Wettbewerb über 18km mit Start in Fridingen.

I am not sure how to translate this word here.

Any help would be much appreciated.

with time intervals ..?

so the walkers are spread out over the track, to prevent congestion.

NYC Marathon adopts staggered-start format
Alan Miller knew it was only a matter of time before the ING New York City Marathon would use wave starts.
The Cooper City runner and one of South Florida's top finishers at the marathon, wasn't surprised when race organizers announced that this year's 39th running of the Nov. 2 marathon will feature wave starts.
According to New York Road Runners president and race director Mary Wittenberg, the new start plan, with revised start times, has runners crossing the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge from Staten Island to Brooklyn in three waves, each using all three existing start lines.
