DISTANCE

Will the event tracks be posted before the start?

The current tracks have already been uploaded to the website, and they will only be changed if there are significant changes to the routes. We will notify athletes of this at a briefing the day before the start.

I have a powerful watch and phone. Is it possible for me not to bring them? Powerbank?

Mandatory equipment must be carried in full for the corresponding distance. If for any reason the athlete is delayed during the course (health reasons, inability to continue, or abandonment), then equipment such as a powerbank plays a crucial role.

What principle do you use when choosing intermediate and control times?

On the VR100 and K70 distances, the first two aid stations have a slower pace – this is primarily due to the fact that these are the most difficult sections for athletes to complete. At distances, a faster pace may also be used towards the end, which implies a smoother and more comfortable passage of the preceding sections.

How do I know if I'm ready for a particular distance?

ITRA points can indicate the difficulty of a distance (you can find them at https://itra.run/FAQ/Runner). Section "ITRA Endurance Points" topic "What are the ITRA Endurance Points?". It's most comfortable to move sequentially between ITRA Endurance Points.

Is it possible to fill up with water before the start?

This option is not available before the start. You must ensure you have enough water before the start.

What is the expected weather forecast for the event?

Temperatures are expected to range from +1°C to -2°C during the event.

Can support teams provide assistance on the course?

Support teams can only provide assistance at aid stations (as well as at the drop-off point). We also remind you that accompanying the course by mechanical means or by unregistered athletes is PROHIBITED!

Why are there different qualification requirements for Elite and Cluster A?

The qualification requirements are based on the ITRA Performance Index. You can find the information at https://itra.run/FAQ/PerformanceIndex in the thread "HOW DO I COMPARE MY PERFORMANCE INDEX TO OTHERS AND WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF PERFORMANCE?" Considering that the race attracts many new athletes from road running, the requirements include some allowances that allow athletes to gain access to Cluster A. Access to the Elite Cluster is solely through PI.

Are there any plans to add additional clusters?

We are working on this to improve the athletes' comfort level and allow them to start with their peers. Additional clusters are currently in development.

How do I properly hand over the drop-off bag?

After placing all the necessary equipment, be sure to fold the top of the bag and fasten the special clasp. It's important to write the number on the bag, holding it in such a way that the clasp is above the number field. Otherwise, it may be difficult to find your drop bag on site (bags are arranged by number, and in some special cases, the numbers on the "flip bag" may match another bag in the correct orientation).

What will the wave launch process look like?

A cluster system is organized for the VR100, K70, and K10 distances. Elite and Cluster A have separate entrances to the cluster area (different ones), while the main flow of athletes enters a common starting corridor. Clusters are separated by ribbons. Athletes set off in waves of 50-100 people, with intervals of no more than 60 seconds. The Elite cluster starts first, simultaneously with Cluster A (without splitting into additional waves). The mass cluster splits into waves.

Where can I see the elevation changes along the course sections?

To do this, open the required map on our website, then on nakarte.me, using the link above. Next to the route, click "..." andSelect "Show elevation profile," which allows you to highlight specific areas and view the necessary information.

Can I use the flashlight on my phone instead of a dedicated headlamp?

No, if I need to search for an athlete, the flashlight on my phone is practically invisible from a distance due to its wide dispersion of light.

Can I use trekking poles?

Yes, of course. But trekking poles are carried throughout the entire race (or from/to the drop-off point).

What does a wind and water-resistant jacket mean?

This jacket must continue to provide waterproof and windproof protection for the athlete's body. We don't specifically specify whether this jacket should have a membrane or an oilcloth backing. It's important that it performs its intended function, but please be aware that the organizer reserves the right to inspect the jacket to confirm its performance. Jacket requirements are detailed in the "Mandatory Equipment" tab.

Can I return to the aid station after the aid station checkpoint closes?

After the checkpoint closes, an athlete returning to the checkpoint is automatically disqualified from the race (DNF).

Why does the course have a number in its name, but the actual course length is different?

The course name, including the numbers, may differ from its actual length.

My GPS device shows a longer/shorter length than the organizers claim.

This is normal; the points on the tracks downloaded from our resources are recorded by the device at regular intervals, which does not always allow for meter-level accuracy. The longer the distance, the more the distance can "accumulate." The main goal of tracks is to determine the trajectory of movement without losing the explorer's spirit when hanging a large amount of marking tape.

Where can I see the exact elevation gain on my route?

The best option is to use the route pages on the ITRA website (Elevation Gain and Elevation Loss, respectively). In our calculations, we use the elevation gain indicated by nakarte.me, as it is the most convenient. It's worth noting that each software product (Connect, Coros, Polar Flow, Suunto, and others) interprets elevation gain based on its own algorithm and the resources from which they obtain their data. In other words, the accuracy variance can be as high as 5-10%.

Is there a mandatory equipment check along the route?

Yes, there is a equipment check for all distances. An athlete may be checked for any item of mandatory equipment, regardless of the distance or location on the route.

The organizers removed me from the race, but I continued on. What will happen to me for this?

This is an automatic DSQ with disqualification from participating in the series (at the discretion of the event director). Event services, such as food stations, are no longer available, and evacuation may take significantly longer (evacuation logistics change over time).

What are aggressive tread running shoes?

These running shoes are designed for grip and stability. This is especially important for snow races, as it helps prevent your feet from slipping while running.

What kind of knife should I bring?

More detailed knife requirements can be found in the "Mandatory Equipment" tab.

What if I miss the time limit at the PP?

Unfortunately, for one reason or another, you missed the allotted time. You cannot continue on the track, according to the event regulations. At the checkpoint, you will be provided with towing to the start/finish area.

What if I see along the course that I'm behind the time limit for the next checkpoint?

A tow truck will be waiting for you at the checkpoint. Please continue along the track. If you realize you can't continue, call the emergency number listed in your phone book according to the regulations and on your bib number. Our dispatcher will inform you of the next steps.

What if I leave the aid station and after a short while realize I can't run to the next checkpoint and want to quit the race?

If you see that you can and have enough time to return to the previous checkpoint before it closes, return to that checkpoint and inform the judges that you have returned and decided to quit. If you don’t have time or can’t get there, then call the emergency number, it must be entered into your phone book according to the regulations, and also written on your starin this issue. Our dispatcher will inform you of the next steps.

What is the optimal first aid kit for your races?

First aid kit requirements can be found in the "Mandatory Equipment" tab.

Which socks should I choose?

Sock requirements can be found in the "Mandatory Equipment" tab. The main criteria for choosing socks are closed shins, taking into account the presence of deep snow on the trail, and choosing a material that does not absorb water.

Can a set of thermal underwear be combined with running pants?

A set of thermal underwear (thermal jacket, pants) should be kept separately from the running kit (pants, Jacket)

Can thermal underwear be replaced with more technologically advanced alternatives?

Technological alternatives can be used instead of thermal underwear if they also: retain heat, wick away moisture, stay dry, and are comfortable. Then they can be used as a substitute for underwear.

Can I run in a jacket without an insulating layer?

Yes, if I have such a layer in my backpack.

Do I have to wear all the mandatory equipment on my body?

The choice of mandatory equipment "on the body" is up to the athlete. The athlete is guided by weather conditions, their own feelings, and comfort.

Why are a regular bandage and a self-adhesive bandage necessary when stocking a first aid kit?

As an application option: a self-adhesive bandage creates a compression effect, while a regular (non-sterile) bandage acts as a primitive bandage for arm support. It is also possible to use a self-adhesive bandage, like a bandage, when a regular bandage is used to secure a plaster or sponge in place of damaged skin.
