The reason is that all starting groups should be equal in size. This minimises congestion and provides the best possible running experience.

The important thing is that you put yourself in the right starting group. Start groups are marked.

Both distances start at 10:00 . Come in good time. It is important that you get into the right starting group. Start groups are marked with finish time for marathon (not pace).

You will find more info on the page participants and in your Start-PM
