QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

At an online registration you will receive a confirmation via E-Mail from our timing partner. This confirmation is sufficient to get a start number. Just print it out and bring it to the place where you get your start number.
At a registration via post you will get the confirmation via post as soon as the money for the entry fee is booked at the account of the organizer. This confirmation is to be presented at the place where you get the start number.

TRANSPORT OF CLOTHES AND ATHLETES

The transfer at the day of the event takes place with the Wörthersee cruise (Wörthersee Schifffahrt). The participants of the 2-teams and the walker/ Nordic walker will be brought with their start number to/from Velden by the Wörthersee cruise for free.

TIMING

>> How does the timing work? Where do I get a chip?
The timing works through a one-way transponder where the start number is integrated. The information on the back of the start number will be read without physical contact by the antenna via radio signal. The advantage of it is the high level of identification, because the start-, interval- and finish time of the runners will definitely be captured in the key moment. After reaching the finish line, time and place are available immediately.
The timing works through two measuring points, at the start/finish at the Strandbad (lido) in Klagenfurt and in Velden (starting point for walker/ Nordic walker).

ROUTE

>>> How are the overall route characteristics really and also especially in the downhill area (forest trail, steep road, asphalt)?
There is everything what one would desire for a run at the landscape. We start on asphalt, and then continue on forest soil with roots, partly very narrow. But there are forest roads and gravel paths. In the area of Klagenfurt/Hallegg/Velden and Reifnitz, one is often on paved roads. We would like to already point out now that it could be very humid in the woods especially in autumn in the morning. Of course one should be cautious at descending routes. No matter what subsoil/grounds. But we will inform all runners before the run additionally about that (preliminary talk on Friday evening).
