You can find the answer to the question on the participants tab. Bibs are not sent by post (environmental aspect). You pick up your bib at Marathon-EXPO. Bring your ID.
Competition day
Can my friends follow me during the race?
Yes! via the results page “follow runners” you can follow the leaders of the race as well as specifically the desired person.
When will more detailed competition information be posted on the website?
You can find a lot already under the participants tab. No later than four weeks before the race, more detailed race information will be posted on the website under the “participant information” tab. There you can read practical information about the race. Read also the Start-PM (published two weeks before the race).
Why don’t you give exact time limits for the different starting groups?
The reason is that all starting groups should be equal in size. This minimises congestion and provides the best possible running experience. Before start all runners choose their starting group (based on estimated finish time). All runners start at the same time (fastest group first). The important thing is that you put yourself in the right starting group. Start groups are marked.
What is the start time for the races?
Both distances start at 10:00 . Come in good time. It is important that you get into the right starting group. Start groups are marked with finish time for marathon (not pace). So if you plan to finish half marathon in 2 hours, you place yourself in start group marked 4:00 (4 hours would it take to run marathon in your pace).
You will find more info on the page participants and in your Start-PM
What does maximum time mean?
If you run faster than the maximum time, you are guaranteed that officials and road closures will remain in place. But even if you run slower, you can still complete the race – but at your own risk and by following normal traffic rules. If you finish before 16:00 (6 hours after the start), you will receive a medal and your time will be recorded in the results list.
