VNEXPRESS MARATHON CHARTER
This tournament charter rule is intended to support the management and organization of
large-scale events, ensure the security of event participants, meet the requirements, and abide
by the international standard of achievement recognition, the rights, and responsibilities of
participants and the Organizing Committee.
I/ Participant conditions
1. Athletes (hereinafter referred to as “participants”) are only permitted to register for one (01)
race distance and must meet the minimum age requirement corresponding to the chosen
distance. Each participant may register for only one (01) bib under their name, and no changes
to personal information (e.g., surname/given name) shall be accepted once registration is
completed. The participant's age will be calculated as of the official race day. Additionally,
participants must have completed at least one officially licensed race recognized by an
authorized governmental body.

Performance Certificate Requirements:
· Participants must submit at least one valid certificate demonstrating they have achieved the
required performance standard in an official race licensed by a competent authority.
· It is not mandatory for the submitted performance certificate to match the distance for which
the participant is registering.
· Participants bear full responsibility for the authenticity and accuracy of the performance
certificate provided. In cases where the Organizing Committee verifies or discovers any false or
misleading information, it reserves the right to cancel the participant’s registration, eligibility to
compete, official results, and any awards (if applicable).
2. The Organizing Committee provides the registration card ("Bib") and information
The Organizing Committee will decide the time to provide Bib numbers and other information
depending on the organization of each tournament. Any time the organizers determine there
may be risks to the event or the runners' safety, the organizing committee reserves the right to
cancel Bib numbers for people who are unable to participate in the program.
3. Before competing, all competitors must sign the Disclaimer of Liability using the form made
available by the organizers.
4. Athletes who compete in each distance's regulations while underage will be disqualified. A
guardian will lose their right to compete if they intentionally sign up a participant not of the
required age.
5. Each athlete's unique BIB number cannot be changed, transferred, or given to others except
with the permission of the organizing committee. The transfer/gift to Bib outside of the
permitted time (if any) of the organizing committee will be strictly prohibited, and the
competition results will not be accepted. We will be considering banning the relevant
individuals from participating in the tournaments of the VnExpress Marathon in the future.
6. The registration cost will not be returned to the athlete after registration is completed, and
the ticket cannot be transferred to another individual for any reason. The runners are
responsible for keeping track of and updating the information the organizing committee
provides them via the race's official website and other social networking sites.
7. Athletes can modify the race's distance as long as they follow the website guidelines of the
tournament
