INFO BEFORE THE RACE:

ABOUT SEEDING AND THE STARTING NUMBER

The starting number is assigned on the basis of the competitor's best placement at the Marcialonga in the last two years, with a calculation that takes into account the placement and the number of started competitors (placement x 100 ÷ number started).
In order to make this criterion easier to understand, a table has been added to the regulations indicating the race time at the Marcialonga 2024 and 2025 in order to be included in the various starting groups.
On the rregulation at point 5 you can understand the correspondence between percentage or race time and starting group.
To check your percentage and race time, please enter your name and surname on the page MY RESULTS
The placement at the Marcialonga takes precedence over any other result.
Only in case of a first participation or a result prior to the last two years, results in other Worldloppet and Ski Classics 2024-2025 races can be evaluated according to the SEEDING TABLE (currently being updated)
In the case of results prior to the last two years, Marcialonga may evaluate races from the year 2023 by adding a group.
The percentage obtained in the Marcialonga Light will be taken into account for those registering for the first time in the 70 km by adding two groups.

YOU HAVE NOT REPORTED YOUR RESULTS ON THE REGISTRATION OR YOU THINK YOUR NUMBER IS INCORRECT?
Send an email as soon as possible with your request, specifying any races, year, distance, ranking and time, or FIS points.

INFO FOR THE RACE

HOW TO WEAR THE BIB

A chip is attached inside the bib to record the start and finish time and intermediate passes. The chip is located on the back, so any backpack should be worn under the bib so as not to compromise its use. The chip is disposable so there is no need to return it at the finish.

TIMING

By EvoData.

GO TO THE START

On Sunday morning, the road will be temporarily closed between Predazzo, Loc. Trampolini and San Giovanni Sèn Jan di Fassa, Costalunga junction. Competitors can go to the start by using their own car and showing their bib envelope on the dashboard, which is valid as a pass.

Only competitors who have made a reservation and show the appropriate ticket can use the BUS service.

FLUOR BAN

Marcialonga is FIS race, so fluor waxes are banned.

CLOTHES BAG

Inside the technical bib envelope is a plastic-coloured bag. Please insert your backpack or change-over clothes into the bag and tie the bag properly and the number sticker must be applied.

The bag must be handed in at the designated BAG COLLECTION POINT in the start area. It is not possible to enter the boxes with the bag. (ATTENTION: Do not put any valuables in the bag. No liability is accepted for bags and clothing not handed in at the designated collection point. Any clothing left in the boxes may NOT be retrieved).
You will find the bag at the arrival.

STARTING AREA AND GROUPS

Access to the starting gates is allowed only after the check-in (from 7 a.m.) and verification that the competitor is wearing the bib and that the number corresponds to the starting group (in case of starting in an earlier group, a time penalty will be applied according to the rules).

The start of the ELITE group is scheduled at 8:00 am. This will be followed by the start of the various groups at the times explained in table at point 5 of the race rules.

The opening times of the groups may vary by a few minutes and be brought forward depending on the flow of competitors or be delayed in the event of queues in the first sections of the track. It is necessary to enter the group early. If you reach the start area late and your group has already started, you must ask the race officials for permission to start.
