Note that this race will not have finishers' awards, but there will be prizes for the top three women and top three men in the 14km and 8km races.  There will also be prizes for the first junior -- 14 and under -- girl and boy.. All runners also stand a chance of winning one of the many "spot" prizes during the lucky draw at prize-giving (which will start at about 2.30pm).


There will be an aid station with water and Coke for the 14km race, but note that, like at all Cyprus Trail Runners events, there will be no disposable cups at the aid station. Runners need to carry their own reusable bottles or cups.


*This race is the last of the La Sportiva Cyprus Mountain Running Championship series for 2018 -- race positions will earn runners points for the championship.
