Mandatory Equipment
WHY IS MANDATORY EQUIPMENT REQUIRED?
You must carry the mandatory equipment with you during the whole race - from start to finish - or you will be penalized. Race stewards may check your equipment at any time during the race.
Don't forget that the equipment we request includes an essential list of basic items that each trail runner must adapt according to their own abilities. We highly recommend you to test it during training sessions under different conditions and to carry everything you need with you.
You must carry your equipment in a bag that we will tag when you receive your bib and you cannot change it during the race.
