Frequently Asked Questions
- What happens on race day?
We organize a #TeamKechara pre-race meet-up for photos and encouragement. You'll receive your race bib (marked with team identifier), warm up together, and run knowing you're part of a community making a difference. Post-race, we celebrate together and share first reactions!
- I've never run a marathon before. Can I still join?
Yes! Many of our runners are first-timers. Our community is incredibly supportive of runners of all levels.
- Can I defer my registration if I can't make the race?
Deferral policies follow official KLSCM guidelines. Contact us immediately if circumstances change—we'll work with you to explore options.
