Participants that do not finish may get their baggage/drop bag either by the finish on the race day (Sunday) or at Langt og Lenge's headquarters in Gjerdrum (by agreement).


Transportation

We offer to book and coordinate transportation to the participants' own cost from the finish at Verdens Ende to Tjøme sentrum and Tønsberg railway station. Take contact with us in the finish area if you need such transportation. 

    Support

    The race is based on the principle of  self-support, which means that each participant in general must carry all food, drink, and equipment needed along the route. However, it is allowed for the participant, in person, to buy food and drink from food stores, gas stations, etc., located along the route.

     

    To receive support from others than the organizer is only allowed at the staffed service points. Note that pacing is not allowed.


    Safety and behaviour

    Each participant is responsible for his/her own safety. It is mandatory to help an other participant who is in an emergency situation. We are not leaving any kind of litter along the route.
