11. GUIDELINES
The Mexico City Marathon is endorsed by the FMAA, WA, and AIMS.
• The runner number will have a timing chip attached, programmed with the printed participation number (BIB). This will be non-transferable and must be carried in front of the chest height throughout the race to be considered an official race runner.
• Medical expenses insurance: in case of an accident the runner must be the holder of the number or they will not be covered. It is necessary to write the name of the runner at the back of the number with the blood type and allergies or illness information in case you have any.
• Services: the official supply area for runners with BIB numbers must be respected.
• Recovery package: finisher's medal, fruit, water and isotonic are only for runners who have their official BIB number. Runners who do not have a BIB number will be withdrawn and will not be able to access the recovery area.
• T-Shirt size: the t-shirt size request during the registration process is for statistical purposes only and this does not commit the Organizing Committee to deliver the chosen size to the runner.
• Start line: participants are responsible for arriving at the assigned start point, according to their corresponding starting block (All information will be in their registration form). Any participant who gets into another place other than the one assigned will be disqualified. For your own sake and that of all other runners, it is very important to respect the starting block.
• Times and Results: there will be control "mats" and timing reading equipment along the entire route; all runners need to pass through all the checkpoints to avoid being disqualified. Spectators and people in general can track the runners in real time with the Marathon App every time they pass through the control points; It is worth mentioning that the published times and results are not official.
• Unofficial runners: they are not allowed in the race and they will be asked to leave the route. Any individual who does not have an official registration, who enters or accompanies a participant during the event will be asked to leave the route immediately. These unofficial runners have an impact on the security and quality of the service for those who are officially registered. Likewise, participants who are caught with a false number will be penalized and will not be allowed to run in events under the "Mexico City Marathon" brand (races to the Marathon, 21 km, and Marathon) in the coming years.
• Route delimitation: participants must remain on the perimeter of the route delimited by fences, signage or other marking all the time. Participants must also recognize and understand the signage of the event and the symbology used for the indications and services of the race and follow the instructions of the authorities. Failure to comply will result in disqualification.
• Limit time: It will be allowed to run at a pace of up to 08 minutes 30 seconds per kilometer, which is equivalent to completing the route in a maximum time of 6 hours. Runners that go slower at this time will be asked to get on the sweeper that will come behind which will take them to the finish line. These runners will be disqualified and will not be part of the official results.
• Route monitoring: if the participation is incomplete during the route or the finish line is not crossed, the participant will be disqualified. Participants with incomplete or irregular marks on the official mats will be reviewed and may be disqualified. In case you need to leave the route or re-enter, you can do it only at the same point where you left, and you will not be allowed to re-enter the race to win a place or attend a competitor.
Note
All those runners who are identified as carrying out unsportsmanlike practices, as well as roadblocks along the route to cross the finish line without having completed the entire route, will be penalized, in such a way that they will not be able to participate in any of the race events of the Marathon platform (Half Marathon, Marathon, and other events) again in its editions to be held in the coming years.
12. JUDGES
The FMAA will endorse the Judges, and the Electronic Timing System will be used through a chip attached to the printed competitor number of every competitor which must be placed at the front throughout the whole race (this system is only to assist and does not determine the winners).
