28THE CONCEPT
Before the start of the MXSKY, the kid completes
1km before handing over a baton to the adult runner,
who can then take off. The kid is then under the
responsibility of an adult (outside the organisation
of the race). An SMS will be sent to the responsible
adult when the adult runner passes through the last
refreshment post at Haut de Caux before arriving
to Montreux. A second SMS will be sent when the
runner leaves the Chauderon Gorges, 5 minutes
before reaching on the waterfront. The kid will have
to go to the relay point located on the Montreux
waterfront to end up the race hand in hand with
the adult. There is no organised transport of
the kid between different points of the trail. The
organisation of the transport is not the responsibility
of the organiser of the race.
REGISTRATION
The kid must have an MSO account before he can
be added as a teammate.
PODIUM
Only the scratch category without gender distinction
will be rewarded.
