Question 3

How do I get to the start line from the airport?

Accepted Answer

From Poznań-Ławica (POZ), take bus line 159 directly to 'Poznań Główny' station, which is adjacent to the MTP race venue. It takes roughly 20-25 minutes.

Question 4

Are pacers provided during the race?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pacers are available for targets ranging from 3:00 to 5:00 hours, usually in 15-minute increments. Look for the flags in the starting corrals.

Question 5

What is the course profile like?

Accepted Answer

The course is relatively flat with a few gentle undulations. It consists of one large loop around the city, crossing the Warta river and passing through major landmarks like Cathedral Island.

Question 6

Are energy gels provided at aid stations?

Accepted Answer

Water and isotonic drinks are provided at every aid station (approx every 5km). Gels are typically only available at select stations after the 20km mark, so it is safer to carry your own preferred brand.
