Safety-pins will be included in the envelope containing your start number.

The time limit is indicated for each kilometer on the race map. Runners after this time must, for safety reasons, leave the track on the instructions of the organizer and end their participation in the race.

Runners code
  1. Go for a sports-health check-up before the race.
  2. Before the race, we recommend a preventive sports health check-up.
  3. In the race, maintain your running pace from the start.
  4. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and dress as if the temperature were 5 °C higher. You can put on an old coat or t-shirt at the start. All clothing left in the start lanes will go to the needy.
  5. Fix your start number to a visible place on your chest and complete the details required on the reverse side. This will make it easier to provide health assistance if necessary.
  6. Use the designated toilet areas.
  7. Adhere to the instructions of the organisers.
  8. Make sure you look around you before throwing away your cup, spitting or blowing your nose.
  9. If you can’t go on any more, first cross to the edge of the course before stopping. This will prevent collisions and unexpected encounters.
  10. The refreshment stations are many metres long. Use the whole length of the space and don’t stop right at the first table.
  11. You can run with headphones if you want, but many bands and music points are located along the course so it would be a pity to miss them.
  12. Share your joy about completing the run with your fans only after you’ve crossed the finish line.
  13. Everyone’s a winner. Enjoy the run and the happiness regardless of the time.
