For the 11th edition Snow Running Sierra Nevada 2022, the use of manufacturer-approved snow micro-crampons is mandatory for participation in the race.
Micro-crampons permitted for SkySnow competitions must have at least 10 metal spikes of 8/10mm distributed between the toe and the heel. Shoes with built-in crampons are permitted as long as they have at least 10 metal spikes of 8/10mm.
Before the race, the technical jury and the organization’s staff will carry out the technical checking of every participant’s equipment.
EACH PARTICIPANT must also carry the following compulsory equipment during the race:
In case of carrying energy bars, gels, etc., participants must mark them with their race number.
Running shoes with track spikes or mountaineering crampons are NOT permitted, neither football boots nor similar footwear.
For safety reasons and to avoid suffering freezing to the toes, “five finger” shoes and “huarache” sandals are forbidden.
FOR PARTICIPANTS’ SAFETY, THE USE OF POLES IS FORBIDDEN IN SKYSNOW CLASSIC
Before the race starts, the referees will check that every participant is carrying the compulsory equipment. They may also check it along the route and at the finish line. Those runners not carrying the compulsory equipment will not be able to participate and will be disqualified or penalised during the race.
