You can find your group and starting time in your bib. It is important to place yourself behind the banner with your group number. The starting time can be affected for different reasons and not match with your bib; however, your group will always be the correct one. If you start ahead of your departure group, you will be disqualified.

You can start the race after the group you correspond, but you can’t never start before the time you have depending on your bib number. This will be subject of disqualification.

How to get the starting line

Train + Shuttle: Renfe and EuskoTren - Special ticket (*)

The ticket is valid only for runners and to reach the starting line before the race. For the purchase of the ticket to get to the starting line, you need to know the line and station you want to use since there are two different train operators, Euskotren and Renfe, so there are two different tickets.

(*) Warning:Any ordinary train ticket that takes you to the start, purchased at any station in Gipuzkoa, will be valid to board the shuttle bus, upon presentation of your race bib number. Therefore, it is not necessary to come to San Sebastián to buy the special ticket. Example: Price of the ordinary ticket for the Zarautz-Ficoba route costs approximately €2.75 and will be valid to board the shuttle bus.
