PROPOSITIONS - 12th year of dm women´s run 2024
Instructions and basic information
Main organizer: BE COOL, s.r.o., Krajinská 37, 821 06 Bratislava, Slovakia
Co-organizers: The Capital of Slovak Republic Bratislava, Bratislava Self-governing Region, City Districts of Bratislava - Ružinov, Old Town and Petržalka and Bratislavský maratón, o.z.
Date: 21.09.2024
Place: Eurovea, Danube embankment, center of the city Bratislava, Slovakia
Time of the event: 09:30 - 18:00
Start:
09:30 – 4 km run + Nordic walking (start and finish at Eurovea)
15:00 – 10 km run (start and finish at Eurovea)
Mom and daughter run
Within the 4 km run, a subcategory, "Mom and Daughter Run", will be created again, with which we would like to support family cohesion and further establish a generational bond between moms and daughters and appreciate their joint sports performance. We are curious whether it will be the mothers who bring their daughters to participate in the race or vice versa. A BONUS is a discounted entry fee of 35 Eur per couple.
Nordic walking
We kindly ask Nordic Walking participants to join and register for the last corridor marked "E" (pace up to 6:00 min/km) during the registration to avoid collision with running participants during the race. Please position yourselves at the end of this corridor behind the running participants.
Track: two disciplines – 4 km and 10 km
Both disciplines will start by a wave start so that the start is as comfortable as possible for you. We are mainly concerned with safety, fluidity and sufficient space on the track. The detailed range of individual time waves / corridors will be published by the organizer before the start of the run. When filling out the registration form, don't forget to choose the appropriate starting wave according to the time of your discipline. The corridor will be open to a maximum of 600 participants. If one of the corridors is full, log into the next one. Participants of "Nordic Walking" discipline are asked to report themself and join the last corridor marked "E", so that there is no collision with the running participants during the race. Thank you.
The start of each wave will start only after the last runner from the preceding wave has finished, so individual start times should be considered tentative. An earlier start for a wave than indicated will not be implemented. We recommend lining up in the starting corridor no later than 10 minutes before the scheduled start time of the respective wave.
10 km – final time:
Start 15:00
