At the race-pack collection, each participant of TENERIFE BLUETRAIL 110K receives two 30-liter bags. After filling them with the items of their choice and closing them, they can drop them in a place close to the starting line. One of the bags is taken by the organization to EL PARADOR and the other one to PUERTO DE LA CRUZ. Upon arriving in EL PARADOR runners will be able to collect the bag. When the runner leaves the aid station, the runner in person will have to deposit the bag in the area indicated for this purpose. The organization will return the bags to PUERTO DE LA CRUZ.

How to get your bags: The bags are returned to either the runner or a family member or friend, only upon presentation of the race-bib. The bags must be retrieved no later than 1 hour after the end of the race. After that time, the runner must come, in person, to retrieve their bag at the organization headquarters in Pabellón Insular de Tenerife Santiago Martín.

The organization will take the bags of runners who drop out, on condition that their withdrawal is registered. The return time of the bags will depend on logistical factors. Because of those factors, the organization cannot guarantee that all bags are brought to Puerto de la Cruz before the end of the race.

Only bags supplied by the organization will be transported.*. Poles are not allowed in these bags. As the items in the bags are neither checked nor controlled, we will accept no claims on that matter. We recommend not to put any valuable items in the bags.

We advise you to keep toiletries and spare clothes in Puerto de la Cruz.

*For logistics reasons, UTMB® World series events only accept the UTMB® World series spare bags that are distributed during the check-In. Those bags are reusable, so we ask the runners who already have received one of those bags to reuse it each time they take part in a UTMB® World Series event.

Pacers are not allowed to set the pace in the race.
