Until the start of the race, transit will be permitted only for authorized vehicles.

BEHAVIOR

Athletes must follow the race markings and pass all checkpoints. It is mandatory to follow the marked trails, and taking shortcuts is prohibited. Any athlete who voluntarily deviates from the marked trail and/or takes shortcuts and/or deviates from the trail will no longer be under the Organizing Committee’s responsibility.

- by asking another athlete to call for assistance;
- by calling the assistance number displayed on each race bib.
Each athlete must assist people in danger and notify rescue services.
If an athlete is unable to contact the assistance number (for example, because they are in an area where only emergency calls are possible), only in cases of absolute emergency they can call 112 directly.
Athletes who use the services of a doctor or rescuer submit to their authority and must unconditionally accept their decisions.

RACE INTERRUPTION

In the event of adverse weather conditions posing an objective danger to the athletes, the course may be modified at the race director’s sole discretion. The competition may be suspended and/or the course may be modified at any time, even if the race has already started. In any case, an alternative route will always be provided.
