Mandatory Gear

In order to ensure their security and the smooth running of each event, each participant must carry with them all the items listed in the mandatory equipment checklist (see below). And take all the equipment with them during the race even if the runner is not using it.

According to the weather conditions, the organization might require one of those three additional kits and inform each participant before the opening of the race-pack collection.

Systematic and/or random checks will be carried out during the race. A penalty up to disqualification will be applied to runners who do not have all the mandatory equipment with them (see PENALTIES).

Please note: the items included in the mandatory equipment checklist are the basic pieces that each trail-runner must adapt according to their own skills. In particular, you should not choose the lightest possible clothing but prefer clothing that really provides good protection in the mountains against cold, wind, and snow, and therefore better safety and performance.

Music: Listening to music using earphones only, is tolerated, so long as it is safe to do so. Any earphones MUST be removed when crossing any roads, as well as on approach to, and whist at, any checkpoints and when approaching and passing any Safety Team members.
