Medical certificate
If you have registered for the main run, it is necessary to send a medical certificate. Italian participants need a sports medical certificate, which is specific to the sport and is issued by an accredited sports specialist (according to DM 18/2/1982). Foreign participants must have the following form filled out and signed by the doctor. All certificates are valid for one year and must be uploaded when registering. If you register for 'Just for Fun' or the 'Jochmarsch', no medical certificate is required. All athletes who do not have a medical certificate can only be found in an alphabetical ranking and do not take part in the awarding of the individual categories. However, the timekeeping takes place. Except for the award, all services can be used. The 10 athletes who are closest to the target time will be awarded. DOWNLOAD: Form for foreign participants
