THE DOUBLE LAPPER

We had a few requests from trail runners who wanted to do more laps. So here's the rules/arrangement around that:
  • After each lap you will need to check in at the finish again
  • Before  starting your next lap you will need to reregister at the timing tables to receive a new race tag(enabling us to monitor who is still out there)
  • We extended the waterpoint times from 7am - 10am, so if you do your 2nd(or 3rd) lap (of any distance) and miss those times you won't have a waterpoint  
  • All laps will be timed, first lap will be your official result
  • We would like to motivate these runners to stay on the marked trail you chose and to try to finish before 10h30.
