MANDATORY GEARS

In order to ensure their security and the good progress of the each race, each athlete must have all the mandatory gear on the list, detailed below.

Notes for All Categories

Athletes will be required to carry a set of mandatory gear throughout their race. Basically, we are following the UTMB Global guidelines.

The course passes through remote trails, where protection from the elements and medical/support services could be some time/distance from athletes needing assistance. It is therefore imperative that the mandatory gear is carried at all times.
Other than the mandatory gears, please bring any other equipment you may need such as Portable toilet, Warm clothes, Beanie, Gloves, Compass, Map, Sunscreen, etc.
Use of poles not carried from start of race or abandonment of poles during the race will subject athlete to 1 hour penalty.

#	Item	Remarks
1	1L+ Drink	Sealed, Resealable container capable of 1L+ drink, designated by hydration (please avoid using disposable plastic bottles for environmental reasons.)
2	Energy food reserve
3	Personal cup (for aid station)	15cl minimum, bottles or flasks on #1 with lids are not accepted
4	Waterproof rain wear (jacket and over-pants)	Jacket must, imperatively, have an integrated hood or one which is attached to the jacket by the original system designed for that purpose by the manufacturer. The seams must be sealed. The jacket must not have sections of fabric which are not waterproof, but air bents fitted by the manufacturer (under-arm, in the back) are accepted since they do not damage in any obvious way the impermeability. The runner must judge whether, according to the aforementioned criteria, the jacket complies with the regulations and therefore is suitable for bad weather in the mountains. However, during the check, the race director’s opinion on the matter shall prevail.
5	2 Light (confirmed lighting) with spare batteries or power sources for each	2nd Light is allowed for spare battery, smartphones and watches are not accepted
6	Survival sheet/blanket	1.4m x 2.m at minimum
7	First aid kit	bring your own needs such as Gauze, Antiseptic, Self-adhering elastic bandage (100cm x 6cm+), Poison remover, Vaseline, Knife or scissors for cutting elastic bandage, Sewing kit etc.
8	Reachable Smartphone	Please install LiveTrail application before your start. The runners must be reachable at any time before, during and after the race, so keep the phone on, do not turned off or in airplane mode. An external battery is highly recommended.
9	Bear Bell	An ideal bear bell should be loud enough to be clearly heard from at least 5 to 10 meters away. Additionally, mid- to low-pitched tones with resonance tend to carry farther and are more effective at alerting bears than high-pitched, tinny sounds.
10	Whistle	Please carry a whistle loud enough to alert rescuers, fellow runners, or staff from a distance in case of a fall or emergency.
11	ID – Passport/ID card	Copies are allowed.
