Race documents
The race documents can be collected either on:

Saturday the 17th April 2010 - time to be confirmed
Race numbers will be issued only upon presentation of your confirmation of registration documents or personal identification documents. Each participant will also be given a clothes´ bag. There will be an accompanying exhibition of sports goods and information along with a pasta-party. Whilst collecting the race documents, you also have the chance to register the kids for the children’s race (registration fee € 2,--) or put your name down for the individual engraving of your finisher’s medal (€ 8,- for adults / € 4,- for kids).
Relay: Each participant has also been given a clothes bag which should be marked in the appropriate field with your starting number and with your team position (1 to 5). Please ensure that the number on the clothes back corresponds exactly to the number on your starting-number.
Please ensure that you wear the starting number on race-day and that it is in no way altered or tampered with. A transfer or exchange of numbers after the team has been confirmed is not permissible. The relay ‘baton’ will be a ribbon, which is included in the race documents. The ribbon is to be worn over your running-vest and to be passed on to be worn by the next member of your relay-team.
Timekeeping
Timekeeping is obligatory by using Real-Time Champion-Chips only. The chip must be worn on your shoes, otherwise the timekeeping cannot be guaranteed. Distribution of rented chips takes place along with the race documentation – these chips are to be returned behind the finishing-line on the day of the race. Those choosing to keep their chips will be deemed to have bought them and charged € 25,- by direct debit. Runners using their own chips must bring the chip with them to the distribution of the race documents. Please check if the correct chip number has been registered!
Relay: Timekeeping will be realised by using Real-Time Champion-Chip, which must be worn by ankle band on your shoe. The ankle band has to be passed on to be worn by the next member of your relay-team.

Please arrive punctually at the start and use public transportation as there are only limited parking spaces available.

The race-number is not transferable; it is to be worn clearly visible on the chest and not to be tampered with in any way. Around the starting place there are toilets, showers and places to hand-in your clothes bags, which should be clearly marked with your starting-number in the appropriate field on the bag. No responsibility for lost clothes or bags will be accepted by the organisers.
