All finishers in the marathon, half marathon, 10 km, 5 km, walking, and children’s run categories receive special commemorative medals.
For logistical arrangements, a storage facility for personal belongings is available in Cathedral Square on the day of the event. Participants may store one bag, which must be labeled with their bib number. Portable toilets are also provided near the gathering areas. Race numbers must be attached to the chest and kept visible at all times, as they contain the timing chip used to record results.
