Here you get all the information you need for our run
around lake "Rotsee" in Lucerne on the 3rd of September 2022.
Lake Rotsee is located between the city Lucerne and the village Ebikon. It is 2.5 km long and very well known for rowing regattas like "Lucerne Regatta".
The area of Rotsee is a nature reserve area and a recreational area for a lot of people who live in Lucerne, Ebikon or nearby.
Around Lake Rotsee is a beautiful path which is about 6 km long. There is a driving ban on the entire path which makes it perfect for a run.
The run around lake Rotsee is about 6 km long.
Start
Your check-in point is next to the parking of Restaurant Seehüsli.
You will get there your starting number and a stick which takes your time. Please bring your ID oder passport with you.
You will start your run around the lake at a specifically individual time
(will be communicated beforehand).
Challenges
After approximately each kilometer a challenge awaits you.
We will not tell you what kind of challenges. Prepare for the unknown. The standards can be seen here.
Finish
After you completed the run, you will check out at the starting point. You will get your goodie bag and your competitor t-shirt there.
You don't need to be a great runner to have a good score.
For this event you will get two scores:
1. Your time for the run around the lake
2. Your scores of the challenges
How does it work?
You will get a stick with which you will log yourself in when you are starting. Everytime you get to a new challenge, you will log yourself out and before you start running again after the challenge you will log yourself in again. In the end, we will sum up all the times of your run which gives you the total time for your run. The fastest runner takes the first place.
Each challenge will also give you a score. Our judges will take your time or your scores. Each challenge will get a first place finisher. All your scores of every challenge will give you a final score for all challenges.
All of you are advancing to stage 2 (HOME). After Stage 2, you will have another two scores and therefore a total of 4 scores.
The best 6 male and 6 female athletes in each division will then qualify for the finals in December 2022.
