If your new information leads to a higher registration price, you still have to pay that amount to complete the change.
If you wish to cancel, your account will be credited in accordance with our cancellation conditions. You can then spend this amount on another registration later.
Attention: Please check the conditions of the organizer to find out until when you can cancel and how much your account will be credited !

There are 1 or 2 timing chip(s) on the back of your bib number. Do not fold the chip(s) and make sure you wear your bib number above your clothes on your stomach or chest. The chips ensure that your (split) times are registered when you pass a checkpoint.
Control points are scattered throughout the course, usually at the supply point. Some checkpoints beep as you pass through them, but not all. Don't panic so if you don't hear anything, you will be registered anyway.
All intermediate times and end times of all participants can be followed live online on the SQM Time website. On the day of the event, the result can be followed live via www.sqmtime.com/live . Via this live coverage, supporters can follow the progress of their favorite runners on the spot via their smartphone. The fans at home can of course also follow everything closely.
There are even participants who like to see during the race how much position they are in and how much time their buddy is ahead or behind!
The prizes will be awarded during an award ceremony near the finish area.
The exact hour will be decided on the day itself and communicated by the speaker or the race director. The ceremonies are held approximately 15 minutes after the arrival of the 3rd finisher.
