During the race, there will be two types of refreshment points: the organized aid stations, and water points (fountains) available at the side of the road (to limit plastic waste). There are eight official aid stations with water and Powerade, about every 5 km, with bananas added from km 15, supplemented by 15 additional water points (some with volunteers, others self-service). Throughout the course, you will be able to refuel with water, Powerade, bananas and Coca-Cola. Marathon runners can drop off their own bottles (no glass, clearly labeled) at bib pick-up: they are placed in second position at each aid station, with no guarantee of finding them. Aid stations will also be available for the Saturday races, adapted according to the distance.

You can switch from the marathon to the half marathon during the race, without prior notice. The organizer asks that this option only be used in special situations (for example for health reasons). At the finish, you will receive a medal and be listed in the half marathon results. However, the difference in entry fee will not be refunded. Conversely, switching from a half marathon to a marathon is not possible!

As the first relay runner, you can also complete the marathon or the half marathon. To do so, you will need to register for both events and wear the bibs of both events during the event. After the relay changeover point, you can remove your marathon bib for the relay marathon and continue your run.

No, no refund is provided in case of non-participation, and the 14-day right of withdrawal is excluded (regulations, art. 3.1 and 5.1). Cancellation insurance ("Läuferschutz") in case of illness is offered for the marathon and half marathon only. It must be booked before the illness, in your VCM account, until March 12, 2027.
