Because many thousands of people enter Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run presented by Turkish Airlines events, the only way we can properly identify you is by your race number. This becomes critically important in the event of a medical emergency. Our event is also covered extensively by the media and by official event photographers. The bib numbers are used to verify your identity. Your finish time is also tied to the timing chip on the back of the bib. Because of this, race numbers are absolutely non-transferrable.
Please pin it to the front of your shirt (we encourage all participants to wear their company's t-shirt). Do not fold or modify the bib because it will cause the timing chip to fail. If you do not wear a race number, you and your company risk disqualification from the Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run presented by Turkish Airlines.
