The organisers will set up a waiting list through the official website to fill any vacancies that may arise due to runners dropping out, at a price of €200 per registration.(plus €5 for the Day Licence).

Any athlete with a disability that can be included in any of the four adapted categories will enjoy a discount on registration, taking into account the tranches and dates indicated above, provided they requirements described above, and if there are bibs available.
To compete in any of the four adapted categories (wheelchair, functionally disabled, sensory disabled and intellectually disabled), registration must be formalised with the FESA (Comunitat Valenciana Adapted Sports Federation), whose contact email address is 21k42k@fesa.es, and telephone +34 963465726. The FESA contributes its criteria, knowledge and experience to ensure the correct grouping in the different categories.
Any athlete who, for whatever reason, does not register through the FESA, will not be classified in any of the four categories of athletes with disabilities, nor will they receive a discount.
Each blind or visually impaired (B2) athlete who requires one will have the right to be accompanied by a guide whose registration will be 100% free and will be made directly through the FESA. There can only be one guide for each athlete with visual impairment.
6.3 Registrations will be made through the website
https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/ (as long as numbers are available).
The website https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/ managed by S.D. Correcaminos is the only official and authorised online distributor for registration in the race, so, under no circumstances is registration or the purchase of bibs through different platforms recommended.
The organisers are not responsible for the reliability, veracity and/or suitability of registrations made through third parties, nor do they assume any obligation regarding the availability of places, stock and/or price.
No guarantee is given regarding the recognition of any rights relating to the guarantee, withdrawal, exchange and/or any other rights recognised to the registered persons if the products are not the official ones or have not been obtained through S.D. Correcaminos and/or the website https://tickets.valenciaciudaddelrunning.com/.
The above is without prejudice to registrations made through official tour operators and included in travel packs, which in any case will redirect to the aforementioned website for the purpose of completing the registration directly on the authorised distribution platform.
6.4 Sub-elite bib status will apply to athletes who apply with times under 30:00 in a 10k or 10,000m race, 1h06:00 in a half marathon, or 2h20:00 in a marathon run in the last three years, and under 35:30, 1h17:30 or 2h45:00 (same conditions for women) and provided they have been achieved in events on the official World Athletics calendar on approved courses.
The elite race numbers will be personal and non-transferable and will be awarded in order of request, and until they are sold out, starting on May 2, 2025. There will be no personal refreshment or payment of expenses or fees to subelite athletes.
Elite race numbers will not be contracted or given to athletes who have had serious doping sanctions from World Athletics, regardless of whether they have served their sanction.
Article 7: Change the name or holder of the bib/chip
7.1 It will be possible to change the name or holder of the bib/chip through our registration platform in the self-management section “Request change of owner”.
It is the only method to make a change or transfer of legal holder.
You can legally transfer your number and place in the race to another runner through our platform. The new participant will formalize a new registration with his/her data thanks to the registration code (valid for at least 1 day) that the first runner must provide. The cost of the new registration will be the price of the section in force at the time of the change of holder. The refund of the original registration will be approved when the new registration is formalized.
Management costs for the change of holder of the registration:
- Until 7 November, 5 euros for “Management costs”.
- From 8 November to 27 November, 25€ for “Management costs” and reprinting of the number and chip (provided that the Organization authorizes it due to capacity issues).
The organisers reserve the right to modify the way in which the change is made.
7.2 For legal and sporting reasons, but above all for safety reasons, it will not be possible to transfer the bib to another runner without following the process foreseen for this purpose and without obtaining the organiser’s agreement.
In the event that the organisers become aware of this circumstance prior to the race, the bib that has been sold or transferred without authorisation will be disqualified, and the owner will not be open to participation in the race. In addition, given the risk run by those people who wear a bib without the knowledge of the organisers and the distortion produced in the rankings, the organisers may note down the details of the person who gives or sells a bib, preventing their registration for the following 4 years, and, where appropriate, inform other marathon, half marathon and 10K organisations of their actions. In the case of athletes who are members of the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation (RFEA) and the Comunitat Valenciana Athletics Federation, their conduct may also be reported so that, if appropriate, the corresponding measures may be taken.
7.3 The organisers reserve the right to prevent the athlete’s registration in the future and to inform other races of the procedure taken for those athletes disqualified for not having completed the entire 42,195 metres of the course. Likewise, the organisers reserve the right to take legal action against those who do not comply with these regulations.
Article 8: Withdrawal due to injury and returns
Under no circumstances can the registration be transferred to the following year.
8.1 Leave due to injury. The accreditation due to injury must be proven by means of an official medical certificate provided on the event registration website, Manage your Registration submenu.

- The refund will be made within 30 days by the same means of payment with which the registration was made.
8.2 Pregnancy leave. This will be granted to registered women with a medical certificate justifying the state of pregnancy.
8.3 Refund Insurance. If the Refund Insurance was taken out at the time of registration, you can request a refund of 80% of the amount, excluding the insurance fee, for any reason, until 30 November 2025. The solidarity contribution will not be refunded, if the there would be, since it will be donated directly to the solidarity entity. The amount of the insurance fee will not be returned, nor any management expense or duplication previously caused.
The refund Insurance can only be contracted at the time of registration, and cannot be added afterwards.
Article 9. Duplicate registrations
We try to avoid errors, as well as duplicate registrations for each race, by means of controls on the ticket platform. In the case of duplication of registrations, the first registration made of the duplicates will be canceled and a charge of 5 euros will be made as “Management expenses due to duplication” in the new registration.
Article 10: Collection of bibs and goodie bag
The bib-chip will be handed out only and exclusively at the Expo 42K Feria Valencia, On Thursday 4th, Friday 5th and Saturday 6th December (schedule to be defined), Feria Valencia will take place, located at Av. de les Fires, s/n, 46035 València (LOCATION).
