The most recent and important updates, if any, will be listed here. Everything else will be listed below.
WELCOME TO BERLIN!
Final updates:
-Runners must keep their wristband on until they cross the finish line. You will receive your wristband at the race expo.
-Be sure to return your timing chip at the finish area. There are bins immediately after the finish line.
-The chip MUST be attached to your shoe to work. It can not be, for example, in a pocket!
-You may only take the clear plastic bag to the bag drop that you received at the expo. You may not use your own bag.
-Your chip number should match your bib number.
-As a reminder, there are official cutoff points:
- Time limit: 6:15 hours (after passing the time measure mat)
- Cut-Off Point at KM 33 at 3:50pm
- Cut-Off Point at KM 38 at 4:35pm
Participants, who have not reached one of these points by the indicated time must leave the official course and continue on the sidewalk or ride in the “broom waggon” to the finish. The organizer’s liability is limited to participants who use the “broom waggon” service. Only participants who can prove all split times and run over the finish mat within the time limit will receive an official result, a medal, refreshment, massage and as the case may be the poncho.
-Please let Yumi know if you plan to come to the After Party
GETTING TO THE START AREA
If you wish to walk to the start area with us on Race Day, and the timing works for you and your wave start, we will be departing the lobby at 7:30AM sharp on Sunday. It is a 2KM walk. This timing may or may not work for you as there are 4 waves, so please make sure that you get to the start area based on your start time.
