Race Logistics and Athlete Benefits
The logistics for the Colinas Shopping stage are highly streamlined to accommodate early starts. Kit pickup is mandatory and held at the Track&Field store within the shopping center from April 23 to April 25. On race day, the parking facility opens at 4:30 AM with a special flat rate of R$ 9,00 for registered athletes until 10:30 AM. For 2026, a new incentive policy grants podium finishers a complimentary entry for a future Run Series stage within the same year.

Credentialing for arena activations is managed via the TFSports App using a personal token and the athlete’s bib number.
