You can switch from the marathon to the half-marathon during the race without any prior notice. At the finish line, you'll receive a medal and be listed in the half-marathon results. However, there is no refund for the difference in entry fees. Conversely, switching from a half-marathon to a marathon is not possible!

As a first relay runner, you can also complete the marathon or half-marathon. To do so, you must register for both events and wear both bibs during the race. After the relay transfer point, you can remove your relay bib and continue your race.
