Start: Saturday, August 3^rd, 2013 at 8 a.m.
Slower runners and / or rookies may choose the early-start option: Saturday at 6 a.m.

Cut-off time: After 32 hours, on Sunday, August 4^th at 2 p.m. / 4 p.m.

Start / Finish: At the soccer field in Sibbesse

Pre-race meeting (mandatory): Friday, August 2^nd, 2013 at 7 p.m. at the TSV Sibbesse club house next to the soccer field. The pre-race briefing includes a pre-race dinner with a pasta and salat buffet. And there is small talk over coffee and pie before the briefing. You may come as early as 3 p.m. on Friday and meet the staff and your fellow runners.

Course marking: None! Runners must navigate on the course by (maps and) GPS track. Maps will be handed out at the pre-race briefing or may be sent by e-mail as PDF files, as are the GPS tracks.

Aid stations: Several. All aid stations will be manned. More information to come. Check our website every now and then.

Highly recommended equipment: Hand-helt water bottles, hydration backpack etc. Flashlight and / or headlamp. We also recommend having spare batteries, extra clothes and shoes on hand at the drop bag places. Having a cellphone (to call the race director or your crew) and some change with you is also advisable.

Pacers, K9, support crew: You may run with a pacer on the 3^rd and 4^th leg of the race, which will likely be during the night and the following day. But you must carry your own stuff: no muling.

You may take your dog (or two of them) with you on the course. At the Stunt 100, there have always been runners running and finishing with their dogs. We appreciate that greatly.

Even though there is plenty of support from our staff, you may want to have your own support crew. Since all the aid stations are – more or less easily – accessible by car, you may want to direct your crew to those places.

Drop bags: You can leave your drop bag at the soccer field, which is the “race hub” during the event (see course description for further details).
Additional drop bags will be transported to two different aid stations at km 76 (mile 45) and km 127 (mile 79). Runners wishing to make use of this service must insure that their bags are securely tied and clearly marked for transportation. You can drop those bags at the start before the race.

Awards: Every finisher receives a certificate and a special award. The results are published in the relevant media.
A nice awarding ceremony takes place at 4 p.m. on Sunday at the start/finish area at the soccer field.

Fee: € 75.- The fee includes the pasta and salat buffet at the pre-race dinner, food and drinks at the aid stations, and the finisher award. Foreign participants may pay cash at the pre-race meeting.

Application: Send an e-mail with your name, address, and previous participation(s) at ultrarunning events to info@hjkoehler.de. Please read the waiver at the bottom of the page carefully!
As for the supplies at the aid stations, please let us know about any special wishes.

Registration is capped at 35 runners. A waiting list will be maintained.

Organisation: Runners’ group of the TSV Sibbesse sports club and friends.
