General info

Cancellation

We would like to point out that it is not possible to cancel a booked starting place. However, it is possible to pass on this starting place to a colleague. Such changes can be made by the team captain directly in the MyB2Run account until the late registration deadline (2 working days from the respective event). After that, changes can only be made directly on site at the Infopoint.

Conditions for participation

Apprentice or CEO, walker or PB-chasing runner, employees at companies, local authorities, associations, universities or other institutions, from sole traders to huge corporations - everyone is very welcome!

You will find detailed information on the conditions for participation in our Terms and Conditions.

Illness / Absence

In order to eliminate risks and avoid accidents, we ask all B2Runners to only take part in the race if they are in good health. We urge you to follow this advice so that you and your employees can enjoy a great run.

We would like to point out that a booked starting place can only be canceled with a valid medical certificate for the day of the event. Send this to us by e-mail and receive a free starting place for the following season.

Instead of canceling as described above, you can also give your starting number to a colleague. Changes can be made by the team captain directly in the MyB2Run account up to two working days before the respective event. After that, changes can only be made directly on site at the Infopoint.

Liability

We accept no liability for damage to health, accidents, theft and other losses or damage.

Please note our Terms and Conditions.

MyB2Run account

With your MyB2Run account, you as team captain can book starting places for our events in the B2Run online store and manage your participants. Please note that you only need one MyB2Run account per company and that multiple locations can be managed via one account. You also have the possibility to register auxiliary captains. You can find more information about registration and login in the Info section under Registration Process.

Would you like to delete your MyB2Run account? Contact us on info@b2run.ch. If a booking has already been made, we cannot delete this account, but we can inactivate it. You will then no longer be able to log in.

Registration

The registration of your company with the booking of starting places takes place via your team captain. The nomination of the starting places is done by the runner. Are you a team captain? You can find detailed information here.

Teamcaptain and assistant captain

The team captain is the person responsible for registering their team and coordinating their participation in B2Run. There is only one team captain per company. He or she opens a MyB2Run account, in which all the registrations, bookings and participants are managed. If you are not organising your team by yourself or are being helped by local colleagues, you can designate assistant captains in your MyB2Run account. Assistant captains can manage participants in the account but cannot make any bookings.

Detailed information on B2Run Genève

Bib collection

Please note that the team captain or their deputy picks up the bibs on the event day for their whole team and then distributes them to the runners. The bib collection stand is right next to the info desk at all events.

You can collect your bibs on race day from 4.30 p.m.

If you as a team captain would like to receive the start documents before the event, you can book the shipping service for start documents with our partner UPS (subject to a charge).

Changing room/shower facilities

We offer you a limited number of changing room and shower facilities on event site. These are located below the stands of the sports centre. Capacity is limited, so you may need to queue.

If you would like to hand over your valuables for safekeeping, bring your starterbag, which you will receive from your team captain alongside your bib, to the valuables safekeeping area. More information on this can be found under "Valuables".

Deadline for registration

The deadline for registration for the B2Run Genève is on 17.05.2022. Until then, the team captain can register participants and make changes to bookings online.

The team captain can register last-minute participants in the webshop up to 31.05.2022 for an additional fee of CHF 5. Changes to registrations can also be made in your MyB2Run account up until that time. After that, final late registrations and changes can be made directly on site at the info desk. Please note that for late registrations, no name will appear on your bib.

Results

All B2Run Genève results (plus photos and a video of the finish line) will be available on the event page straight after the race.

Starting procedure

To keep the flow of runners moving on the course as smoothly as possible, a number of different starting blocks are provided at the start of each B2Run. We ask all participants to line up according to their expected finishing time. You will find the following starting blocks in the starting area:

Starting blockWho is this starting block suitable for?
<25 minsYou are in top form and always aim for a PB. Regular training several times a week means you can run the whole distance faster than 4.5 mins / kilometre.
25-30 minsYou are fit, do a lot of sports and go running regularly. It is not just about being there - you want to really build up some speed.
30-35 minsIt's not the first time you've put on your running shoes, and you like to do sports. You will not cross the finish line with the leaders of the race, but you are quite a fast runner.
>35 minsYou are a beginner or occasional runner and have not trained specifically for this race. Or: For you it is mainly about enjoyment and you simply want to have fun with your colleagues and the other participants. The time it takes is irrelevant.
WalkingYou are registered in the "Walking" category, or you will walk the distance instead of running it.

Timekeeping

With B2Run, we measure your running time using a timing chip that works like a stopwatch. This means you and all the other participants receive their individual time.

The timing chip is fitted on your bib. Your time starts automatically as soon as you cross the start line. And it also ends automatically when you cross the finish line.

Thanks to this system, it doesn't matter whether you leave the start line immediately after the starting signal, or line up at the back and only get to start a bit later. Your time only starts when you cross the start line.

Valuables

We provide free safe storage for valuables for all participants. Please store your valuables in the starter bag provided and bring it to the valuables safe storage facility. After the race, your race number serves as the collection slip for your valuables. The valuables safe storage facility is signposted.

Please note due to limited space, we can only put B2Run starter bags in the valuables safe storage facility. Sports bags etc. cannot be left at the valuables safe storage facility. No liability is accepted for theft or other damage and losses.

Walking / Nordic Walking

Walkers / Nordic walkers are most welcome at the B2Run Swiss Company Run. In order to offer all participants the best possible running experience, there is a separate starting block for all walkers / Nordic walkers.

We ask all walkers / Nordic walkers to start from this starting block only. Thank you.
