Time chips for running races

So I own a par of Zoot Ultra Race 2.0 and I have a race in a week that just announced they’d be using chip timing for easier splits and finishing. Anyone have a solution in using the time chip because I don’t believe you can unlace the shoes.
I was thinking about using my chip anklebraclet.

They usually give you a little plastic zip tie-like thing. Just bring one in case they don’t.
