These runs may be set-up on the streets of the Host city, within the
confines of a city park or on a regular track for ease of monitoring.

If conducted on the streets or on an irregular path in a park or similar
location, the course is to be marked every Km.

Marshals must be positioned so that all runners are in visual contact
with at least one marshal at all times. It is suggested that all marshals be
equipped with a walkie-talkie or cell phone so that emergency personal can be
called in immediately if required.

Water stations should be set-up along the course.

A medical examination within two months prior to the games is strongly
recommended.
