The chip timing system is cronochip. You will find it in the envelope of your race bib. <\/p>

The organisation will provide each participant with a single-use chip that will be placed in the participant\u2019s shoe and must be returned at the end of the race (you cannot participate with the yellow chip).
If you are going to pick up your bib number, but you are not going to take part in the race, remember to leave your chip in the designated areas.
If for any reason you cannot return it on the day of the race, you can send it by post to: RPM Racing, Av. Diagonal 477, 9th floor, 08036 Barcelona.
Failure to return the chip implies a penalty of 5\u20ac. <\/p>
