Special classification in the half marathon Running Award A sequential ranking system is used, i.e. the ranking is based on the order in which runners cross the finishing line irrespective of the age grouping (single or team) but according to the male/female classification split. In the case of the Running Award the first two men and the first two women crossing the finishing line from the respective registered company participating are ranked as a group on the basis of summing their respective times. This means that the ranking is based on a total of four finishing times. Engraving of medals Engraving of medals (name and finishing time) is possible after the race in the finishing area.
