Rules and Regulations

1. Runners of all categories must arrive at the release point on time. The runners will be classified at the release point according to their running statistics.

If a runner arrives later than this, the Race Committee has the rights to exclude the runner from the race. 

2. All runners shall attach the BIB on the front of the shirt so it can be clearly seen and attach the race chip as instructed.

4. Runners who start off before the time set for each of the race types or before the signal from the Race Committee will be disqualified from the race. 

5. The Race Committee will assign the runner groups before releasing according to the running statistics stated in the application. All runners must enter the release point in accordance with the group assigned.

6. All runners must run along the assigned route (following the arrows, ribbons, and directing signposts/signals). No shortcut is allowed. All runners must pass all of the Check Points set by the Race Committee. If any runner is found to use a shortcut or miss a check point, the case is considered violation and the runner will be disqualified from the race.
