Yes, you can transfer your bib free of charge directly from your personal account.

If you can no longer take part but have a friend who wishes to run the same race, you can initiate the bib transfer by following the steps below:

1. Log in with your credentials to access your personal account.
2. Transfer your bib by entering the email address of the person who will receive it in the dedicated field, then click on “Transfer my registration”. That person will receive an email with a link inviting them to claim your bib.

Important information:
Bib transfers are only possible if the Be Ticketing insurance has not been activated.
The bib transfer is free; however, the registration system only transfers the bib itself, not any additional options (shuttle, etc.). These options will therefore be cancelled. If the person receiving the bib wishes to benefit from options (shuttle, etc.), they will need to purchase them separately. Bib transfers are possible until 22 October 2026 at midday. The person receiving the bib must have completed their information by this deadline.

Information for the person receiving the bib:

• Taking over a bib implies acceptance of the event regulations.
• If you receive a bib from a registered runner, you will not be able to subscribe to cancellation insurance, nor obtain a refund if you cannot participate. This is not an organisational choice but a technical limitation of the registration system.

According to the event regulations, Article 6 (CLICK HERE), you may cancel your registration under the following conditions:

A/ Using your cancellation insurance (Be Ticketing insurance)
The organisation does not issue any refunds in the event of cancellation. Only participants who subscribed to this insurance at the time of registration may request a refund. Please note that refunds are processed according to the insurer’s terms and conditions.

How does the Be Ticketing cancellation insurance work?

• This Be Ticketing cancellation insurance must be purchased at the time of online registration.
• If you subscribed to this insurance during registration, simply log in to your personal space or refer to the contract received by email at the time of registration to access the refund request link and follow the insurer’s instructions.

Important information: This insurance is an external service, independent from the organisation. For any questions regarding cancellation insurance, you may contact them:

The PPS (= Pass Prévention Santé) is an online video module of about 3 minutes provided by the French Athletics Federation (FFA). Its purpose is to raise awareness among athletes about health risks related to running and trail running. After watching the video, you will receive a certificate code as well as a certificate with a QR code. This code must be entered on the registration platform.
Starting in 2026, the PPS becomes paid (€5) and is now valid for 1 year.
The PPS must be completed directly on the FFA website, and the certificate number must be provided at the time of registration or until the end of the online modification period, which is 22 October at midday.

The QS number must be obtained directly on the PPS platform, and the certificate number must be entered at the time of registration or until the deadline for online changes, i.e. until October, 22 at midday.

You must provide proof of health insurance (PPS number, QS number, or license) online before the event, i.e., before 22 October at midday!

Whatever your choice, make sure to wear shoes you have already tested during training to avoid any surprises on race day.
