Please do not pull your vehicle into the race venue or on the starting/finishing stretch. Park at the designated spot and walk over.
We reserve the rights to delay the start without prior notice.
The website has detailed directions to the venue. Please refer to it on the day of. We will be in the middle of the bib distribution and can barely give time to repeat directions on the phone. Also, our phones and attention need to be available for emergency calls.
Once you reach the venue on time, please go to your respective bib table by distance. If you haven't paid, your bib will be at the Admin table (late fees applicable). There will be a place to drop your bags. No valuables please.
There will be a mandatory gear and guardian check for kids 12 y/o and under, who will require the following: i) proper outdoor shoes, ii) sun cap/hat, iii) a signed up & paid guardian, and iv) at least 1ltr water for the kid (There will be a waterpoint around midway, but we will still require smaller kids or their guardians to carry extra water). Shades are recommended.
The bib numbers go on your chest. Make sure your number is visible when you finish.
Marked Did Not Start (DNS) on the timing system if you miss the start of your distance. Result omitted. No refunds for late or no shows. For safety and liability reasons (ribbons will be demarked by a crew trailing each distance), latecomers will not be given bibs and not formally allowed to race. However, should you miss your start and wish to join another distance, please go to the admin table. A fee of Rs. 500 is applicable to change distances. It is crucial we have you on the roster for your safety - to know that you're on the trail.
The Liability Waiver Liability Waiver form provided needs to be signed before you get a bib. Please read it through.
In order to ensure kids' safety, it is mandatory for a parent/guardian (also needs to be signed up and paid) to accompany kids below 13 years old, throughout the event. One guardian can accompany a maximum of two kids. Please sign up in advance to avoid late fees.
Pets are not allowed for safety of runners (tripping on leash, biting etc) and your pet (local dogs get territorial).

Please be on time. Can't stress enough.

Trail Info

GPS/KML tracks of each of the distances will be available for download on Friday (one day before the race). Carrying a charged smartphone (with credit for mobile data) has been made mandatory, so that you can view the routes on apps like Google Earth, Maps.me or similar in case you lose your way. There will be (intensified) trail markings along the route; the GPS loaded on your phone will be the go-to if you find yourself lost, which in adventure races can be anticipated.

Race Pre-requisites

For folks who want to join Snail Trail, please ensure you have the following pre-requisites:

Physical fitness to finish 12K in 3hrs; 6K in 2.5hrs; and 3K in 2hrs, all of which is plenty.
Charged smartphone with balance for internet data and apps to view GPS/KML tracks (which will be provided on Friday, one day before the race)
Ability to navigate on undulating trails, that might be narrow, slippery, muddy, bushy, thorny and steep up or down, through dense vegetation
Understanding that this is a recreational outdoor adventure race, with an element of physical risk. There are no prizes for winners, monetary or in-kind.
Payments in advance (before deadline) for regular entries. Walk-ins (and anything after the regular deadline) are subject to late fees
All participants are required to sign a waiver form during bib collection, which is a standard measure for any adventure event. It states i) waiving liability for loss of life, limb and property; ii) agreeing to receive group and/or individual email, phone call and/or text related to the races, including updates on participation status; and iii) agreeing to have your photos and videos published on our marketing collaterals. Because there are small kids participating in the race, we make extra sure on safety - which curtails behavior and action of participants on the trails, at the race venue etc.
Great attitude
