FAQ
Registration and Transfers
Yes, it’s possible directly through our online platform, Let’s Do This subject to availability at the time of the request.
Since the distance is sold out, there is no waiting list. To obtain a bib, check our official Facebook group where participants may offer their bibs for transfer.
Important: All transfers must be completed exclusively through Let’s Do This. Never send money directly to the person selling the bib. This procedure is mandatory to prevent fraud, ensure a secure transfer, and guarantee that the bib is properly registered in your name.
