MEDIC

1. The organizers will provide medical services at designated locations as well as mobile medical services at certain stretches.

Particular dangers in this race include dehydration, hyperthermia ( heat stress), sunburn, exhaustion and injuries sustained from accidents. Please ask for medical help if you have the slightest hint you may need it. You will not be penalized for receiving medical evaluation. You will be withdrawn from the race only if you require transportation, IV fluids or if medical personnel feel your continued participation could result in serious harm or death.

Remember, during events of extreme endurance, the body's pain threshold is raised, and you may be in more trouble than you realize. The medical personnel will do all they can to keep you in the race and assure a safe finish.

The medical tent will officially close 10 hours after race start. All athletes seeking medical attention after that time will be referred to local emergency room facilities. All medical expenses incurred are the sole responsibility of the athlete and not the organisers. Failure to meet financial responsibility to local medical facilities will result in suspension of future participation at all Malaysian sporting events until accounts are settled.

NOTE:
If you are taking any medication, or have any medical problem which may influence your performance or your treatment in the event of an injury, advise us of all necessary details during the registration day. You are required to notify us in writing, if there is any change in your medical status/condition after your application has been processed. Failure to do so will result in suspension of participation in future events.

The Medical Headquarters is located at the start/finish line. Please do not leave the finish area until you and your team members are absolutely sure you are alright.

WITDRAWING FROM THE RACE
Medical assistance areas will be roughly every 5km or less and an emergency First Aid Station will be placed just off the start/finish area. Limited pickup assistance will also be provided for those athletes withdrawing from the race. Specialized physical therapists are available for sport massages just beyond the finish area. Payment is required for their services.

FOOD AND DRINKS
2. There will be water stations at designated points along the track. Participants are not allowed to bring their own food or drinks during the race.
3. For those who prefer to have their own special food item(s) available on the course, special foods stations will be provided at the midpoint of the course which is the peak of Gunung Jerai. Contestants must provide their own labeled bags for these stations. Bags will be collected in the morning of the race at the starting point. ONLY FOOD ITEMS WILL BE ACCEPTED (no clothing, shoes etc). This station is for nutritional purposes only. Any unclaimed bags will be discarded after the race. The organizers is not responsible for the content. Although we try to expedite assisting you in obtaining your special foods bag at the station, the volume of contestants may require that you stop and find your bag.
4. At specific locations on the course, aid stations and food/drinks-stations will offer fluid replacement drink, water, ice, sponges and food replenishment as offered by food sponsors such as cookies, power bars and electrolyte salt tablets. The food aid stations will close at the 10 -hour event completion time.

MARSHALS, OFFICIALS ND UNIFORMED PERSONNEL
5. Members of the Police force, the Fire Dept. rescue team, RELA, JPA-3 and marshals and officials will be on hand to provide assistance during the event.
