Recommendations and other rules of conduct:
Given the characteristics of the route and the length of the track, participation requires adequate physical preparation and is recommended only to athletes who have trained on tracks of a similar length.
In case of stops or falls, it is recommended to get out of the way of other competitors as soon as possible and to carefully check that no other competitors are arriving before restarting.
The competitor who falls or stops must give way to the other competitors on the track before restarting.
It is recommended to take maximum caution when overtaking trying to do it in the least dangerous points. The following competitor must overtake without harming the competitor in front of them. After the finish line, clear the finish area as fast as possible.
Given the characteristics of the race, it is possible that, at certain times, there could be other competitors or organisers on the track intent on fixing the track or ski-run. Competitors should, therefore pay attention to avoid any unforeseen events they might encounter during the race. In case of withdrawal, when covering the stretch of track necessary to reach the finish line, competitors will have to go to the edge of the track paying particular attention not to hinder the subsequent competitors in the race.
