Your race bib is the only way we can ensure you are allocated to the correct start wave and also properly identify you on the course. Your race bib also contains your timing chip and because of this, race bibs are non-transferrable and should be pinned on the front of your shirt.

Some companies decide to create their own team shirts. If your company has organised a team shirt, you must liaise with your Team Captain about where and when you can collect this. A reminder that participants can either wear their company team shirt or their own running shirt.
