FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers to the most common questions about the request, the selection and the day of the event.
Do I need to be an experienced trail runner?
No: the run is non-competitive and groups are formed by pace. A basic running fitness is required though: the form asks about your experience and volumes precisely to build balanced groups.
How are the 40 participants selected?
We collect up to 500 requests and select 40 runners. If you are selected you will receive an acceptance email with the instructions to confirm your participation.
Can I choose the date?
In the request you indicate your preferred date among Thursday 17, Friday 18 and Saturday 19 September 2026 (or no preference). The most requested date will be given priority; the final date is confirmed by the organisers.
Which Sylan 2 size will I get for the test?
The one indicated in the request form. Before the event, with the final details form, you can confirm or correct your final size.
What should I bring?
Running clothes and whatever you normally use for a trail run. Practical details are emailed to selected participants.
What if the weather is bad?
The guides assess the conditions and, if necessary, adapt the route or the programme. Every update reaches participants by email.
Is there a refreshment?
Yes: back at VIETTI there is a lunch box for all participants. In the final details form you can indicate your dietary profile and allergies.
How will I know if I have been selected?
You will receive an acceptance email with the link to the final details form: final size, dietary profile and emergency contact.
