How can I find out my bib number?

If you haven’t received the email, you can access it through our oficcial website, through the following link
If none of these options have worked for you, you should go to Athlete service once you’re at Expo Sports.
Where do I have to pick up my bib number?
The bibs can be picked up at Expo Sports on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday prior to the event.
Can another person pick up my bib number?
Yes. The bib, chip, and shirt will be delivered solely and exclusively in person at the Expo Sports, Thursday afternoon, Friday, and Saturday prior to the race.
Bibs will not be handed out on race day.
The runner may authorize a third party to collect the bib and runner’s bag. They must bring your receipt with the bib number and your ID (digital copy accepted).
Bibs will not be delivered to those who do not meet the requirements set by the Organization.
After collecting the bib at the location indicated by the organization, the shirt will be collected on a strict first-come, first-served basis, until the size runs out. The organization cannot guarantee the size because the order and manufacture of shirts is done prior to the closing of registrations.
The failure to collect the bib and runner’s bag under the established terms implies the waiver of the same.
Can I change my corrals for one that leaves earlier?
Yes. You just have to send an email to the following address: info@mitjabarcelona.com
You will always be able to access a starting box lower than the one you chose. If you finally want to run in a faster box, you will have to contact the organization to make the change for you.

Will I get a t-shirt with my registration?
Yes. After picking up the bib number at the place indicated by the organisation, the T-shirt will be collected in strict order of arrival, until the size is finished. The organisation cannot guarantee the size due to the fact that the t-shirts are ordered and manufactured before the closing date for registration.
Failure to collect the race bib and the runner’s bag in the established terms means that the runner will forfeit the same.
What chip timing system is used in the race?
The chip timing system is Chronochip.They will give this to you when you pick up your race number.
The organisation will provide each participant with a single-use chip that will be placed in the participant’s shoe and must be returned at the end of the race (you cannot participate with the yellow chip).
If you are going to pick up your bib number, but you are not going to take part in the race, remember to leave your chip in the designated areas.
If for any reason you cannot return it on the day of the race, you can send it by post to: RPM Racing, Av. Diagonal 477, 9th floor, 08036 Barcelona.
Failure to return the chip implies a penalty of 5€.
Can I run with headphones/earphones?
The RFEA/WA regulations do not explicitly prohibit it. However, we strongly recommend NOT using them, in order to enjoy the city environment and, above all, to be able to hear at all times the instructions from the organization, volunteers, and security services during the race.
Elit Athletes
According to federation regulations, the use of headphones is not allowed for elite athletes and those competing for official rankings, prizes, or records, as they must be able to attend at all times to the technical and safety instructions from judges and the organization.
La organización podrá restringir el uso de auriculares en cualquier momento si lo considera necesario por motivos de seguridad.
Will there be pacers to guide me during the race?
Yes. You will find a team of 30 pacers to help you achieve your goal. You will find them in the starting corrals corresponding to their brand, and they will carry identifying flags with the time in which they will run the race.
These will make the route in 10 different paces: 1h20′, 1h25′, 1h30′, 1h35′, 1h40′, 1h45′, 1h50′, 1h55′, 2h, and 2h05′.
