  • In addition to all its physiological benefits, sports activity can also pose dangers, albeit to a very small extent. 
  • It is important for you to consult a cardiologist or sports medicine doctor before performing at a higher level of performance to assess and evaluate any risk factors you may have and to screen for any possible diseases. Once these are determined, further testing may be necessary if you are placed in a higher cardiovascular risk group. The aim of these is to prevent even life-threatening events.
  • Only participate in a sporting event that involves more than average effort or a more strenuous workout if you have adequate endurance training.
  • If you have upper respiratory tract complaints, an illness accompanied by vomiting and/or diarrhea, a fever, or are injured, do not participate in the event or the upcoming training sessions until you have recovered.

If you are unsure about the right time to start again, consult your GP/sports doctor/orthopedic doctor/cardiologist.

  • If you experience any unusual symptoms (e.g. dizziness, fainting, unreasonably fast heartbeat, irregular heartbeat, choking, chest pain, chest tightness) while exercising, stop and seek help if necessary!
  • The above does not depend on the length of the sports activity, what constitutes serious performance is unique to each person. Be responsible for yourself, exercise smartly!

All prepared runners who accept the conditions set out in the competition announcement can start the race.

Due to the specifics of the route and the increased risk of accidents during the race:

  • Wheelchair and Handbike competitors can only register by first name!
    • We only accept entries from those who complete the distance with an assistant; we cannot accept entries from wheelchair and handbike competitors completing the distance individually!

A competitor who folds, covers, or does not wear their race number clearly during the race may receive a 10-minute time penalty.

You can only enter the finish area with a start number! Wearing the start number (in front, clearly visible!) will be checked upon entering the southern ski slope!

A competitor may be disqualified if, despite repeated warnings, he violates the rule regarding wearing a start number, or if he does not complete the entire distance of the race - designated by the organizers - or if he fills out the entry form inaccurately, with inaccurate or incomplete data.

It is NOT RECOMMENDED that runners listen to or use any music or other player that dampens outside noise while running, plugged into both ears at the same time.

  • During the race, bicycle and motorcycle organizers, as well as emergency vehicles, will be working in the field.
  • The headphones suppress external noise, so the runner may not disturb previous runners and the organizers and medical team doing their job.

It is forbidden to roller skate, cycle, run with a cyclist, without a race number, or with a dog in the race! Runners who start with a cyclist or roller skater may be excluded from the race.

We do not undertake any value retention in the competition.

Any advertising activity at the event venue may only be carried out with the prior permission of BSI, in an agreed form and manner.

For organizational reasons, BSI reserves the right to limit the number of participants and close registration at any time.

BSI reserves the right to change the route, program and time.

Useful:

  • We cannot hand out refreshments in glasses at the refreshment stations, you have to get your own drink.
  • The biggest problems often arise at the refreshment stations. 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. 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.

IMPORTANT!

  • At the refreshment stations along the route, we will place giant bags attached to a cordon capable of storing 1 cubic meter of waste, primarily for collecting empty cups.
    • You will find the giant bags on both sides of the route, after the last refreshment table.
    • The last giant bags will be placed about 50 meters from the end of the station, this will be indicated by a separate sign. Please throw the waste you brought with you from the refreshment station into this at the latest!
