  1. Hello.
    This is my first time taking part in running competitions in another country.
    Please tell me, will the starting number be available on the night of the launch?
    And do I need something other than a passport?
    Thanks.

    1. Hi Alina,

      Glad to hear about your first overseas run!

      Addressing your first query, please note that the starting numbers would be available for 2 days prior to the race day i.e. on 14th Nov & 15th Nov (more details listed below)

      Venue: Bravo BKK, Rama 9, near RCA Alley, Floor 1
      Date & Timings: Nov 14 (10am-7pm) & Nov 15 (10am – 4pm)

      They will not be available just prior to race start at night (the expo ends by early evening on Nov 15)

      As for your second query regarding the documentation required for race number pick up, most races require a photo ID card (for which your passport should be sufficient) as well as the race confirmation email shared by the organizers. But I would also advise you to contact the race organizer at the below email ID to confirm if any other documentation is required — the email ID is njatbkk@gmail.com

      Wishing you all the best for your race!

      Regards
