The meeting time and access to the grids (areas) will be communicated in the Race Info which will be published in the days before the race. Latecomers must start at the back of the group. The accesses to the “grids” (areas) will be manned by volunteers who will check your bib to ensure that you are entering your assigned starting sector. The start of Acea Run Rome The Marathon will be at 08:30 am.The start will be in waves at intervals of a few minutes.
Please note that the trajectory used for the measurement corresponds to the minimum distance that can be covered. It is practically impossible for you to follow the same trajectory during the race, so it is quite normal for your GPS watch to record a distance covered in excess of 42.195 km by several hundred metres.
The measurement of times and the drawing up of rankings will be carried out by means of a system based on an electronic transponder (“chip”) which will be handed out when the bib is collected with instructions and attached to the bib. The chip is strictly personal and cannot be exchanged. Athletes who remove and/or damage the “chip” in any way will not be able to be timed and will not appear in the rankings. For each athlete the following will be recorded: the official time (from the firing of the relevant wave to the finish line), the net time (from the moment of crossing the starting line to the finish line), the intermediate times at the following km: km 10, km 21,097 and km 30.
The time limit to finish the marathon is 6h30. Competitors will then be given the maximum time details for the various passes of the intermediate mileage references. At the end of the marathon there will be a technical commission composed of a technical manager, a FIDAL judge (if any), a representative of the Municipal Police Command, who will assess the actual closure of the route according to the status of the last participants. Athletes who do not respect the time limits for passing through the gates will be asked by the officials to board the shuttles for the withdrawn athletes or to continue running on the pavement and not on the road, in accordance with the Highway Code, in order to protect their safety.
Refreshments and sponges along the course will be provided in accordance with World Athletics/FIDAL regulations and explained in detail in the Race Day Info.
The organisation will provide, free of charge, several groups of clearly recognisable race assistants (“pacers”) who will be responsible for running the marathon at a steady pace to the finish line. More information on the pacemaker service will be provided in the coming weeks.
Athletes who are injured or intend to withdraw from the competition can use a special shuttle service to reach the next pick-up point (about km 20.6 – km 28.3 – km 32.8). From here they will be transported to the arrival area. Athletes who are able to walk can reach the nearest collection point on their own.
Medical assistance will be provided for athletes who need it along the route and at the finish line.
