Every relay teamwill receive a written entry confirmation.

The entry confirmations along with some important participant information about the relay competition in line with the Mainova Frankfurt Marathon will be sent out via post or email in mid-August, mid-September, and mid-October, depending on the time of registration. Relay team applicants that are residents of Germany were able to choose between email and postal delivery during the registration process. All other realay teams will receive their entry confirmation via email.

The entry confirmation must be shown at the race number pick up. In case you haven’t received the entry confirmation of your relay team (please check your spam-folder) or simply lost it, you may also use your passport or ID-card when picking up the race numbers of your team. You can also authorize another person to collect the race numbers. The collecting person for this either needs your registration confirmation or a declaration of consent from you, which must be submitted accompanied by a copy of your ID.

The fourth runner enters the main hall through the East Gate. After 60 m in the hall he runs over the finish line. We will make this entrance into the hall very coherent; In the hall are the ranks opened, in addition, grandstands are built up. There is room for about 7,000 spectators (5,000 seats, 2,000 standing). Please note that it is not allowed to enter the fourth floor. Only the last runner of the relay team is entitled by his starting number to stay on the last section of the track. If the fourth runner has overrun the target line (contact mats), the run time of your relay is registered. The target area and the hall should be left quickly, so that no congestion occurs. Go straight ahead into the ‘Forum’ building, which connects directly to the main hall.

The goal is open until 16:15. Correspondingly, the course is to be completed in 6 hours (net). This corresponds to an average speed of 8:30 minutes per kilometer. Participants who arrive later are no longer covered by the time taken.

The start numbers are not transferable. Each team will receive four starting numbers and four garment bags when the start documents are collected. The starting documents will not be sent. The start takes place 35 minutes after the marathon start, at 10:35am.

You can have your personal finisher’s medal engraved with your name and overall time, on Sunday, 12 noon to 5pm, hall 1, level 2 (registration venue). If you have not ordered it in line with your registration, note that you have to pay 10,- EUR.
