Start envelopes with start numbers and information letters are sent to the team leader approximately two weeks before the event. The timing chip is picked up on race day at the Vasaloppet start, S\u00e4len. Teams that have not received start envelopes sent to the team leader pick these up at the race office in Mora in the days before the event, or on race day at the Vasaloppet start in S\u00e4len.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">The registration fee includes bus transport for participants on legs 1 and 2. Bus tickets to the start for leg 1 must be booked. Please note that runners on leg 2 must take the organizer&#8217;s bus to Sm\u00e5gan. From pickup of leg 2 in M\u00e5ngsbodarna to handover of leg 10 in Eldris, the team handles its own transport.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">Teams are responsible for transport of change clothes and outer garments. A tip is to give your outer garments to the person you&#8217;re handing over to!<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">The start goes jointly at 08.00. The start corrals open at 07.30 and whoever runs the first leg should be in place in the corral no later than 07.55.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">At the handovers, the timing chip functions as a relay baton. It&#8217;s worn as a band around the wrist and handed over to the participant on the next leg at the handover checkpoints.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">During the nine Swedish miles on historic Vasaloppsmark, the team passes a total of seven checkpoints where you can refuel with drinks and energy. In addition, there are fluids, sports drinks and water approximately every five kilometers. Toilets and medical personnel are available at all checkpoints.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">Several events take place simultaneously and when elite runners and recreational runners run side by side, good cooperation between runners is important. The basic rule is: Keep right, pass on the left.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">When the runner on the final leg glimpses the church tower in Mora, the home stretch is approaching! Then it&#8217;s time for the rest of the team to gather so you can celebrate together at the finish and receive your well-earned medals. When you&#8217;re ready, simply take the free bus to the showers at Pr\u00e4stholmens IP. After that, you can return to the finish and pick up your diplomas and continue celebrating with all the other runners.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\">Every finish is a victory. We&#8217;ll see you on the course!<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading vl-text-md\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:70px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading vl-text-md\">More information about the race<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"vasaloppet-accordion-block\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"vl-accordion\" id=\"VLACC8957\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"bde-accordion bde-accordion--bordered\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bde-accordion__content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"bde-accordion__title-tag\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"bde-accordion__button\" id=\"vl-accordion-button-4979\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"vl-accordion-panel-4979\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"bde-accordion__title\">Collect your number bibs<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"bde-accordion__icon bde-accordion__icon--default\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"bde-accordion__icon bde-accordion__icon--active\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" class=\"bde-accordion__panel\" id=\"vl-accordion-panel-4979\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"vl-accordion-button-4979\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bde-accordion__panel-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"breakdance-rich-text-styles\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>All our participants must wear a start number and a timing chip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-large with-line-height\">A letter with start numbers is sent to the team leader approximately 2 weeks before the race.
