The organiser says the official SportScheck RUN shirt by Brooks takes the place of the usual bib number: it is the proof of starting rights and gives access to the course and finish refreshments, so wearing it during the run is compulsory. Timing is by TimeMotion with a shoe transponder handed out when the race pack is collected, and the net time can be read straight after the run.
