Recommended equipment:
Competitors should make sure when placing their start number that they can be identified in the finish photo at the finish line. Therefore, please place the number on the chest or waist (front) and do not cover it with other clothing or equipment.
The entire length of the cave will be illuminated, but to avoid any technical problems or injuries and to ensure better visibility of the passages, it is recommended that all competitors use headlamps during this part of the race.
ANPI guides will supervise the race on the cave section. It is FORBIDDEN to stray from the marked course, to damage the stalactites or to litter!
Attention!
- There can be a temperature difference of up to 20 degrees Celsius between the cave and the surface section!
- The ground in the cave is slippery, so you must be very careful on this section. When wearing footwear, it is advisable to choose shoes with the least slippery, softest rubber soles, or shoes with a non-slip sole. The right choice of footwear will also be essential on the surface, as if it were rainy, the forest section will also have slippery, steep hillsides.
- IMPORTANT!
- Leaving the designated course on the surface – for the purpose of a shortcut – will result in immediate disqualification from the race!
- All runners enter the race at their own risk, who, by completing and submitting the entry form, acknowledge that they accept the conditions set out in the race rules and declare that they are prepared to complete the distance of their choice.
- We will exclude any competitor who folds or covers his/her race number, does not wear it on his/her chest during the race, does not complete the entire distance of the race as set by the organisers, fills in the entry form inaccurately, with incorrect data or incomplete data, or uses the chip for purposes other than those for which it is intended!
