Timing and logistics are handled with chip registration by Ox Max; the chip is on the rear of the start number and only runs with a chip are recorded for the official results. The Battle TrailRun 60 km is an estafette where teams exchange an ankle band with a chip in the transition area and a fourage post is present on the course. Trail routes are clearly marked and registered runners receive a link to download GPX bestanden for compatible sport watches about one week before the event. There is no day registration. Minimum ages apply per distance. Event fees include basic services such as wardrobe and course fourage posts while a small conservation contribution is charged separately.
