§2 OCR 24 is a self supported race and all participation is at YOUR OWN RISK. OCR Westervik and OCR 24 disclaims all liability for damages to the participants and their equipment. If any of the participants or their equipment and / or clothing are damaged, the organizers are not responsible. We strongly encourage all participants to have insurance for this type of race.
§3 You are obligated to call for contest management’s attention if you or anyone else gets injured during the race. If you find an injured contestant on the course we urge you to finish the lap as quickly as possible, skipping all remaining obstacles, in order to report the incident as quickly as possible. Of, course, you will not get any penalty or "flawed lap" for skipping obstacles under these circumstances.
§4 The registration is complete and final when your team has payed the registration fee and emailed all the necessary information to [email protected] (see above).
The organizers will not refund any registration fee.
§5 The Race Committee reserves the right to change the race whenever they want.
§6 Prior to the race there is a mandatory meeting where all particitants will receive in detail information about the race track and its obstalcles. During the 24hours of the race the track may change. The participants will be clearly informed of these changes prior and during the event.
§7 Minimum age to participate is 18 years old. Minors require a parental consent under contract with OCR 24 to be able to race.
§8 The Race Committee reserves the right to cancel the race. If this occurs, the entry fee will be returned, but no compensation for other expenses such as travel or hotel will be refunded. No refund for entry fees will be made if the event is cancelled due to force major (see §22).
§9 It is not allowed to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while you are competing or attending OCR 24. The organizers have the right to pick you off the track/event area and disqualify you if you appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
§10 It is forbidden to use performance-enhancing drugs. The organizers have the right to pick you off the track/event area and disqualify you if you appear to be under the influence of performance-enhancing drugs.
§11 All changes in your registration (transfer, change of team name, etc.) must be notified by email to [email protected] earlier than 1 week before the start. All inquiries there after may not be considered.
§12 OCR 24 may take pictures (moving and still) on location during the event. As a participant you give OCR 24 permission to publish footage of the event in the channels OCR24 wish to use.
§13 Only one person in the team runs at the same time. Switching between team members is done in a marked area. If the exchange is not made here, the team can be disqualified. If you are competing in a 2 person team (duo team) both team members may take a simultaneous "break" (meaning no person in the team needs to be racing on the track) for a maximum of 5 minutes.
§14 Most completed laps wins. Laps completed with failed obstacles may result in penalties and/or a reduction of your teams total number of laps. OCR 24 relies on the honor system and expects all participants to compete fair. However, there will be a system to keep track of all participants' obstacle completion. Cameras and referees will be used to encourage that rules are followed. Cheating at obstacles, or diverting from the designated race track, may result in disquailfication. OCR 24 is an OCR race and the participants must do their best to complete each obstacle. The winning team is the team that has completed the most laps. If two teams have completed the same amount of laps there will be a final head-to-head lap to determine the winner.

(Note: The above rules are under construction. There may be additions and/or changes to these rules.)

RULES clarifications and additions (In Swedish)
BANA & HINDER
§15 Nya hinder kommer att utöka den befintliga hinderbanan.
§16 Du får göra hur många försök på varje hinder som du vill men klarar du inte alla hinder på varvet så räknas det varvet som ett "missat varv". 4 missade varv resulterar i en straffrunda och ett avdraget varv på ditt totala antal varv.
§17 Att hinder klaras eller inte kommer att kontrolleras av webbkameror och/eller funktionärer. Däremot är OCR24 ett lopp som förlitar sig på deltagarnas ärlighet och sportslighet.
§18 Under tävlingens 24 timmar kommer de tävlande att byta varv åtminstone en gång. Detta innebär även att hindren kommer att bli annorlunda/olika svåra.
§18 Vid bangenomgången före loppet informeras de tävlande på vilka sätt det är tillåtet och inte tillåtet att hjälpa varandra att klara banans hinder.
§19 Endast en tävlande från samma lag får springa banan och tillgodoräkna sig varv. Däremot är det tillåtet att slå följe med en lagkamrat runt banan för att heja på. Den lagkamrat som följer med får då inte göra några hinder.
§ 20 Om det är kö på ett hinder har tävlanden som gör sitt första försök på det hindret företräde. Långsammare deltagare får gärna låta snabbare deltagare gå före vid hinder, men detta är upp till var och en. Vissa hinder kommer att ha ett alternativt hinder som den tävlande, vid eventuell kö, kan välja att göra istället för det ordinarie hindret.
ALLMÄNT
§21 All form av nedskräpning på banan leder till varning och, vid upprepade företeelser, diskvalifikation.
§22 Vid force major eller om tävlingsledningen bedömer att det råder extrema väderförhållanden, såsom extrem vind eller åska, har de rätt att ställa in eller avbryta tävlingen. Detta för att kunna säkerställa deltagare och funktionärers säkerhet. Vid en eventuell sådan situation betalas inga inga anmälningsavgifter tillbaka.
§23 Innan loppet måste alla deltagare skriva på en ansvarsfriskrivning där man även intygar att man inte har några medicinska åkommor som skulle kunna innebära att deltagande i OCR24 medför några allvarliga faror för hälsan.
Observera att deltagande i OCR24 sker på egen risk.
§24 Samtliga deltagare uppmanas läsa och sätta sig in i de ovanstående reglerna.
