BIB Colours and start groups
The race departure is organised in 19 groups, divided firstly by colours and then by groups.
The bib colours are allocated based on the records previously achieved both in Behobia San Sebastián or in other half marathons. Only records achieved in the last three years (exceptionally this year 4) will be accepted, and you will be asked to attach any proof upon inscription.
If proof is not given, and a colour other than white is chosen (white does not need proof, as it’s the last colour), the organisation will change to white or, otherwise, the colour that corresponds if you have run the Behobia over the last three years.
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 check here all the relevant information regarding the times needed for each bib colour..

the backpacks cannot be heavier than 5kg and we highly recommend not to leave any valuables or breakable items, since the organisation will not be held responsible. The runners will have to leave their backpacks in the designated cloakroom, that corresponds to the last two numbers of their bib.
The participants can leave their bags, properly closed, with the sticker stating their bib number in any of the following delivery points:
Before the race
The backpacks should be dropped off at the Point of distribution C.D Fortuna in Kursaal Congress Hall (Zurriola Hiribidea, 1, 20002 Donostia) friday 11th and saturday 12th of November. After the race, you can pick up your backpack in Plaza Gipuzkoa (Finishing line).
