The Covid-19 epidemic is still around. By following these guidelines, you will minimize the infection risk of yourself and other people in Bodom Trail.
1. Stay home if you have flu symptoms
If you have flu symptoms five days before the event, please don’t come to Bodom Trail.
A participant experiencing corona-related symptoms can postpone the run until next year with their own notice via email (bodomtrail@gmail.com) without a medical certificate. After at least two days without symptoms, it is possible to participate.
For postponing due to other health reasons, a certificate from a health care professional still be requested.
2. Avoid of unnecessary physical contact at the event venue
The event will be held in an unrestricted outdoor space. All activities are carried out in such a way that the participant can maintain sufficient safety distances to other people.
Before the start
- The race material is available as self-service outdoors in the event info. Remember safety distances in the area.
- Changing rooms are available but consider wearing the running outfit already at home or change in the car or outside.
- If you arrive with your own car, store your extra materials in the car during the race.
Start
- Start will take place in groups of 30 runners at one minute intervals. Find a starting group that you think will match your pace.
- You can wear a mask in the starting box. There are trash bins for used masks after the starting line.
During the run
- For hygienic reasons, disposable cups are used at aid stations.
- Volunteers fill the cups, participants do not fill the cups themselves.
- You can ask a volunteer to fill your own drinking bottle.
- Aid station volunteers wear FFP2 masks and gloves.
- If you need to sneeze or spit, do it safely for other runners: use a napkin or make sure there is enough space to the runner behind and in front of you (at least 5m).
- The first aid team is using protective masks and gloves and minimises physical contact with the patient in first aid situations. In the case of resuscitation, no mouth-to-mouth resuscitation is used.
After the run
- Keep a sufficient safety distance from other runners.
- Volunteers serving food products use FFP2 masks and gloves.
- Saunas and showers are available for those who accept the risk of infection. Wearing a mask is not required and safety distance may not be possible to maintain.
3. Taking care of hand and cough hygiene
The coronavirus is transmitted primarily as a droplet infection. By ensuring proper coughing and hand hygiene, it is possible to prevent infections.
- Hand sanitizer is available indoors, at the start and finish area and along the route at service points.
- Use sanitizer before eating and after sneezing or coughing, or when your hands are visibly dirty.
- When sneezing or coughing, place a napkin in front of the mouth and discarded immediately after use. If a napkin is not available, protect your mouth with an elbow bend. The hands are then washed. NB! Don’t litter on the race route! Take napkins to trash bins at the aid stations.
- Wearing a face mask on the race bus is recommended.
- In the starting area, there are trash bins for masks. You can wear a mask until it’s your turn to start.
