On the day of the event
It's always worth paying attention to the announcer! Some things may change or be modified on the day of the event and this is the only way we can inform you about them.
Meeting point
We will set up “Meeting Point” signs at the competition center, which are clearly visible from afar, so that competitors, relatives and fans can meet each other around them. If you are coming with a group or class, this is a safe spot where you can meet up even in the large crowd. Before you start, agree with your companions and chaperones on the exact meeting point after reaching the finish line.
Information
At each of our events you will meet a dedicated information team who will help you navigate not only the specific event. If you are interested in details of other BSI events, or would like to register for other running or walking distances this year, look for the BSI information tent near the Competition Center!
Lost children
They can provide information about children separated from their parents in the information tent. We ask you to contact them for help!
Etiquette

During the event, do not block the entire width of the road. If you hear someone approaching, move aside as soon as possible and let them pass.
We ask that you keep the area of the competition center and the route, especially at the refreshment stations, clean! Use the waste containers provided and do not litter! Restoring the venue to its original condition is a very big task, thank you for helping us with this!

At this event, everyone can only enter the starting zone corresponding to their predetermined expected pace (minutes/km).
This also aims to reduce the chaos of the first kilometers after the start, and unnecessary overtaking. If only runners with the same pace start from one zone, the beginning of the run will be much calmer and more predictable.
The timing service provider is AGNI-Timing.
Timing is done with RFID chips attached to the back of the start number.

There is no on-site refreshment drop-off facility at the competition center.
At the refreshment stations along the route, we will place 1 cubic meter collection containers, primarily for collecting empty cups.
You will find the collection containers on both sides of the route, after the last refreshment table.
The last container is located about 50 meters from the end of the station, and this is also indicated by a separate sign. Please throw the waste you brought with you from the refreshment station into this container at the latest.
Please do not throw away any waste generated along the route, but put it in the containers placed at the refreshment station.
At the refreshment station, we will not give you water or soft drinks in glasses; you will always take them from the tables.
Do not put the used, empty glass back on the refreshment table!
At the refreshment stations, watch out for crowds and sudden movements. Don’t try to squeeze in between two runners for a quick drink or snack. Follow basic etiquette in a running race, wait your turn, and remember that there are often fewer people at the far end of the station. Don’t take more than you need, as there will likely be several runners behind you who may need a refresher even more than you do.
If weather conditions warrant, we will build additional temporary water points along the route.
Half marathon time:
A competitor who does not complete the first lap within 1 hour 39 minutes (gross time shown by the clock at the finish gate) will not be allowed to start the second lap.
