IV. Time Regulations
1.All participants must complete the race within the designated time limits and meet the cut-off
times (COT) set along the course for each race distance. Participants who continue running
beyond the designated time limits do so at their own risk, and the Organizing Committee shall
not be held responsible in such cases. Finish times will not be officially recorded for these
participants. Official race time is based on the start time set by the Organizing Committee.
The maximum completion times for each distance in the event are as follows:
21 km: Maximum completion time is 2 hours 15 minutes.
42 km: Maximum completion time is 4 hours 30 minutes.
2.All aid stations (including hydration, medical, and sanitation points) will close according to the
scheduled cut-off times and course closure timeline.
3.All participants must arrive at their designated starting point on time according to their
registered distance. Any participant who starts more than 10 minutes after the official start time
will not be allowed to compete.
4.All participants must start in accordance with the assigned start arrangements based on the
information provided during registration.

V. Monitoring the race track
1. Any athlete who disobeys the referee's instructions, makes offensive comments, acts
unsportsmanlike, speaks, or behaves in a way that offends the event's personnel,
volunteers, participants, or spectators may be disqualified from the competition.
2. A runner who leaves the track cannot return for any reason. Those who deliberately
abbreviate the course ("Take a shortcut") will be eliminated from the competition.
The race-track referee, members of the organizing committee, and the recording security
equipment will all record any fraudulent activity.
3. The athlete must be aware of and adhere to the rules of the race. If runners do not stay on
the correct path, their times and results will not be modified for whatever reason. (For example,
running more than is necessary or in the wrong direction will not add time to the overall race
time).
4. Athletes that sign up for the event without having their official Bib number, a timer, or a
non-personal timer will not be allowed to compete in any races that the organizing committee
sponsors.
5. Athletes are not allowed to receive any other support except support from official stations of
the Organizing Committee (water and medical), other athletes in the running track, medical
staff, or other emergencies as permitted by the Organizer.
6. While running, athletes are not entitled to any help from vehicles with wheels or motors,
except those with impairments who have the Organizing Committee's clearance.
7. Animals, explosives, combustible materials, pneumatics, hazardous materials, and anything
that could endanger or inconvenience other track users are prohibited.
8. The following situations give the Organizer the right to keep the runner's Bib and return it to
them at the referee counter only after the race.
· Runners start after the starting gate has closed.
· Runners wear two or more bibs throughout the race.
· Runners do not complete the course by the Cut-Off-Time (COT) point by the time allotted by
the organizers.
· Runners stop road races.
Athletes who violate one of the above contents, depending on a case-by-case basis, will be
considered as DNQ (Do-Not-Qualify), DNF (Do-Not-Finish), or DNS (Do-Not-Start).
VI. Safety for participants
1. Any vehicle with wheels, including bicycles, skateboards, baby strollers, and skates, is
prohibited from running.
2. Athletes are responsible for learning about the instructions and symbols related to maps,
places, and directions.
3. Any athlete who exhibits health or mental instability symptoms has the right to be examined
by medical personnel. Medical personnel have the right to take an athlete out of the
competition if necessary.
4. If the authorities, fire, health, or police make a request, athletes must stop competition for the
protection and safety of other athletes or persons.v
