Team Building 5K / 21K

  • When completing the online application for each participant in the “Club / Team Building” field, write your team’s name or select from the teams already offered (check if someone in your team has already added the team’s name).
  • IMPORTANT! The team’s name must be written in Latin (because of the data processing system) and must be the same for each member because the system will not be able to recognize that you are from the same team. For example, if your team’s name is Ohrid trcaT, then you should select Ohrid trcaT for all members of the team when registering.
  • If you want your team to participate in the 5 and the 21 km race, then your team should have at least 4 competitors. The maximum number of competitors in the team is not limited, for example, if you have registered 8 competitors in the ranking for your team, only the best 4 competitors times will be taken into account.
  • The ranking of the race will be performed in two categories (men/women).
  • A contestant must not be registered for two teams, if that happens, the competitor will be disqualified from the team’s ranking.
