To collect the bib number, athletes must present the registration document that was sent by email. Bibs may also be collected by a third party, provided that the registration document of the participant is presented.
The participation kit includes a technical t-shirt, a bib number with a timing chip, and a bag. Finishers will also receive a medal.
Access to the start line on the Vasco da Gama Bridge is only possible via the buses provided by the organization. There is no other way to reach the start.
The buses provided by the organization will operate from 6:30 am to 7:30 am, departing from Gare do Oriente, next to the Vasco da Gama Shopping Center, at 6:30, 6:45, 7:00, 7:15, and 7:30 am. After 7:30 am, no buses will be available.
On their bib number, participants will find the suggested bus departure time to ensure they arrive at the start without unpleasant surprises.
To get to Gare do Oriente, runners can use public transportation free of charge by showing their bibs. They may use CP trains, Carris buses, and the Lisbon Metro. There are several options to travel to Gare do Oriente from the city center. Runners should plan their journey in order to reach the buses to the bridge in time for the race start.
The organization strongly advises runners not to wait for the last buses, as thousands of runners will be traveling to the start line and bus capacity is limited.
