3. Running with another runner's bib number - immediate disqualification.
4. Emergency blanket - it's a life-saver in case of hypothermia and freezing weather!!!
5. You need to bring your own drinking cup (15 cL minimum). There will be no plastic cups at aid stations, so each runner must provide their own even at the finish area.

Mandatory equipment is a set of equipment and clothing that the runner must have during the entire race for his safety.
The organizer has the right to check the equipment at certain points of the course in order to maintain the safety of the runners.
Not having a key piece of equipment can lead to the disqualification of a runner for failing to meet safety protocols.
Mandatory equipment is listed in the Race Rules and Regulations document.
FOOD AND DRINKS ON AID STATIONS
There will be plenty of food and drinks on all Aid stations stated in the Timecharts but it is best to have spare energy gels, bars and liquids with you because the time between Aid Stations can vary from 1,5 to 3 hours (or even more) for different runners.
Fruits, vegetables, cheese, chips, salami, Cola, nuts, bars and chocolate are amongst the standard food choices you can find on our Aid Stations, and on a few of them you can enjoy hot soup, pasta, traditional Gjomleze and beer. There will be options for omnivores, vegetarians and vegans.
During the Ohrid Ultra-Trail® races, personal assistants acting as a runner’s support are only allowed at Aid stations. Assistants may only enter the area specifically designated for them and must comply with all instructions of aid station team leader and staff. You can find the PA - Personal Assistance aid points stated in the Official Race Timecharts.
On registration, participants authorize the organizers to freely use any images depicting athletes during their participation in Ohrid Ultra-Trail®, whether still or in movement, with no territorial or time limits.
