In the registration form, choose TEAM REGISTRATION and enter your team name. You also provide estimated finishing times for each team member. The team that finishes closest to its estimated finishing times wins.

You can change your times up to one month before the race.

How the winning team is selected

For every second the runner’s finishing time is different from their estimated finishing time, the team receives two penalty points (if the runner is running a half marathon or 5K) or one penalty point (if the runner is running a marathon or 10K). The team with the LOWEST number of points wins. If several teams score the same number of points, the faster team goes first. It is not allowed to stop before the finish line or along the course to wait for your estimated time. All team members must finish before the maximum time (Marathon: 6 hours, Half marathon: 3 hours, 10K: 90 minutes, 5K: 45 minutes)

What is the difference between the team competition and the relay?

In the team competition, a team consists of exactly 3 runners where each runner runs the full distance of the race (5K, 10K, half marathon or marathon) and each runner has an individual result recorded. Runners do not have to run the same distance. In addition, members estimate their individual finishing time at registration and the difference with actual results is calculated. Teams with the smallest difference win.

In relay races, a team consists of 2 to 4 runners where each runner runs one or more parts of the distance (half marathon or marathon) and only the team’s name and result are displayed in the results list (the runners’ names are not recorded). The winner is the fastest team in each class (WOMEN, MEN, MIXED, COMPANY). Here you can read more about our relay
