ASML Halve Marathon – 3 hours

RSM 1/4 Marathon – 1 hour and 20 minutes

City Run – 45 minutes

Is there time registration?
The MYLAPS BibTag will only be used to record time during all running competitions of the ASML Marathon Eindhoven (ASML Marathon, ASML Half Marathon, RSM 1/4 Marathon, City Run and Jumbo Mini Marathon). There is an electronic chip (Tag) and a plastic spacer on the back of your starting number (Bib). BibTag makes registering your times very easy, all you have to do is wear your starting number correctly. 

Information to ensure good time registration:

  • Draag het startnummer zichtbaar op de borst. Bedek het startnummer niet met een jack of met je handen tijdens het passeren van de matten op de start- en finishlijn. These mats receive the signal from your BibTag (also pay attention to pressing your own stopwatch on the start and finish line).
  • Do not fold or wrinkle the starting number.  Certainly not where the Tag is.
  • Gebruik vier speldjes op de hoekpunten van het startnummer, doorboor de Tag niet.
  • Do not remove the plastic spacer.
  • The BibTag works based on a different technology than the MYLAPS ChampionChip. That is why you cannot use your yellow or green MYLAPS ChampionChip during this event. However, you can simply leave your MYLAPS ChampionChip on your shoe, as it will not interfere with the BibTag system.

The Tags do not have to be taken back after the race, you can keep the bib number (with Tag) as a souvenir or throw it away with the normal waste (plastic).

What is the official time?
The gun time is the official time. Deze start op het moment dat het startschot gegeven wordt en stopt op het moment dat je de finish passeert. The net time is the time that starts when you cross the mat on the starting line and stops when you cross the finish line. The net time/chip time is stated as an extra service.

Where are the toilets located?
Toilets are available in the start and finish area.

Where can I find my results?
The results will be published on this page after the event. You will also receive the link to the results page by email after the event. Please note: the gun time is the official time. Do you have a question or comment about your result? Send an email to Mylaps Event Timing stating: your starting number and any times you have clocked yourself.
