Each team gets 4 BIBs with a chip, one for each section e.g. 5000-1, 5000-2, 5000-3, 5000-4, where the number after the dash corresponds to the section. Note that it is important that you wear the right BIB on the right section otherwise the time is not registered. If a runner runs several sections, several number tags are put on (if I run section 3 and 4, I should have number tags 5000-3 and 5000-4 on me). All 4 bibs will be collected at the same time by the team captain in Expo. Bring your ID with you! If someone else than the team captain collects the bibs, the team captain’s ID is shown (possibly a picture of it).

Your result will not be valid. To change class, you need to register a class change at least 3 weeks before the race.

Of course you can! You decide who in your team runs the extra section. The bibs will show which section it belongs to. That person simply has to wear two bibs.

Your result will not be valid. To change class, you need to register a class change at least 3 weeks before the race.

Of course! Enjoy a pizza or whatever you like in your tent after the performance.

Om en löpare bryter eller av en annan anledning lyckas inte ta sig till växlingszonen inom maxtiden (beräknat från starten), har nästa löpare möjlighet att starta ändå. I detta fall får löparen en extra stafettpinne från personalen i växlingszonen. Lag som slutför loppet på detta sätt kommer inte få någon tid registrerad på tävlingsdagen utan några dagar efter (detta pga extra administration). Båda stafettpinnarna måste lämnas in vid målområdet.Each section has a maximum time corresponding to approximately one quarter of the total maximum time (marathon 6 hours, half marathon 3 hours). If a runner breaks or for any other reason fails to make it to the transition area within the maximum time (calculated from the start), the next runner has the opportunity to start anyway. In this case, the runner will receive an extra baton from the staff in the transition area. Teams finishing the race in this way will not have a time recorded on race day but a few days later (due to extra administration). Both batons must be handed in at the finish area.Halvmaraton:
