It’s about being part of a community, each member identified by a unique BIB number proudly displayed on their chest. As you glance at your BIB, you’ll notice it’s not just a number; it’s your ticket to a specific section, each with its own story and pace.
| Runner type | constraint | conditions |
| Elite runner | ~4:41 MPH | (varies country to country and by age group) |
| Section A | 3h – 3:30h cut off time | (timing certificate required from your previous run, varies country to country and by age group) |
| Section B | slower than section A but faster that section C | |
| Section C | slower than section B but faster that section D | |
| Section D | slower than section B but faster that section D |
These sections aren’t just arbitrary divisions; they are carefully crafted categories that ensure a smooth flow of runners, creating manageable batches for the thrilling start at the marathon line. Each section is a story, each BIB a chapter, and together, they form the narrative of a marathon – a tale of determination, community, and the shared pursuit of personal victories.
