Over 3,100 runners in the X-ray run: registration deadline is approaching!

The anticipation for this year's X-ray run in Remscheid is noticeably increasing. The starting signal for the event, which has now attracted over 3,100 runners, will be given on Sunday a week from now, i.e. October 22nd. There are over 200 participants who have decided on the full marathon distance of 42.2 kilometers. Younger athletes in particular have discovered this run, which also goes back to the important figure of the scientist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen. A trend that is well received and shows that X-ray running is more popular than ever.

If you haven't registered yet, you should hurry up. Regular registrations run until midnight on Sunday, October 19th. Late registrations are only possible on site and up to one hour before the start. However, an additional late registration fee is due, which could spoil the fun a little. Changing your registration to other routes is no longer permitted after the deadline, so it is important to act in good time. But who doesn't like to come well prepared?

A safe run

A new security service was hired to ensure the safety of the participants after the Technical Relief Agency is no longer responsible for the route closures. This should guarantee runners a safe and pleasant experience - after all, nothing should distract from the joy of running.

On another positive note, registration fees remain stable and have not been increased, which is certainly a welcome circumstance for many potential participants. The event also has some new merchandising items that can be purchased at the stand at the marathon fair. Running enthusiasts should take a look here to stock up on a souvenir of this sporting event.

A special anniversary

Bernd Fiedler also received a very special honor during the X-ray run. He receives the Federal Cross of Merit for 50 years of voluntary work, so it would only be fitting to give him a warm round of applause. The award was presented at a ceremony on August 5th, but his contributions to the X-ray run live on with every run.

On the topic of results that matter to ambitious runners: Central collection of data is essential to assess performance in running events. Platforms like HDSports offer comprehensive results lists and are therefore a valuable aid for tracking performances and records. Such statistics are not only important for the participants themselves, but also provide an overview of developments in running.

Overall, this year's X-ray run promises to be a real treat for long-distance runners, spectators and helpers. So let's look ahead and look forward to an unforgettable Sunday full of activities, community and sporting achievements!
