Dear sports friend,
Great that you want to register for the half or full marathon of the Berenloop.
Because there are still restrictive measures in force, it will be a different Bear Run than usual. For example, start and finish will be separated from each other to ensure optimal flow and maximum mutual space for all participants. The start for both the full and half marathon will also take place in phases (= intermittently). To avoid fast runners constantly having to catch up with the less fast runners on the road, we therefore ask you to indicate your expected (and real) end time when registering. That way we can organize everyone as optimally as possible at the start. We would also like to know if you are already on the island on Saturday or if you are coming on Sunday morning.
Because of that phased start - which is a condition for the permit - the Berenloop is not a competition this year, but a performance run. This means that there is timekeeping and a final result, but that no prizes are awarded afterwards. Of course everyone will receive a medal and a running shirt. This setup also fits in with the idea that it is currently more important to stay healthy and fit than to deliver a heavy performance.
Furthermore, it is good to know that if the event cannot go ahead, you will receive the registration fee after deduction of the costs incurred. That means the full 100% minus 5 euros administration costs until 1 September anyway. We are also unable to increase the registration amount by 5 euros because of all the extra measures we have to take in the field of hygiene, logistics, permits, etc. We hope for your understanding.
For us it means that we are in fact organizing a completely new event, and we will be working hard on this in the coming months, in close consultation with all authorities. We hope to make it a great running weekend with you!
