General Information:
For the acquisition of the trophy, the following applies:
A club team/relay must consist of 4 runners (at least three) who can come from all performance classes (excluding minis and children due to the shortened start). The time sum of the three best runners will be counted. The trophy will be permanently won by the team that wins twice in a row or three times in total.
Relays must be announced at registration! Subsequent changes to the relay members or the relay name are only possible until the day before the race, 1:00 PM!
The organizer expressly reserves the right to change the class division even after all registrations have been submitted or after the registration deadline. This is especially true in case of insufficient participants per class.
The executing local group disclaims any liability for accidents and damages incurred by participants as well as third parties. Each runner must provide proof of accident insurance. Changes in the execution remain reserved by the organizer.
The Nature Friends Bad Gastein look forward to a large participation!
