This system helps distribute the number of participants evenly across the start line and makes the overall organization of the event easier.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the prepared start schedule table, you will find detailed information for each start group:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 the start wave number, indicating the order in which the race begins,<br \/>\n\u2022 the color and name of the zone ready for use on the event grounds,<br \/>\n\u2022 the meeting point for the group \u2014 for example, Victoria Cross or Crows Nest,<br \/>\n\u2022 the recommended arrival time, which helps avoid last-minute rushing,<br \/>\n\u2022 the time to enter the start zone area, where volunteers and organizers are waiting,<br \/>\n\u2022 the expected actual start time, which may be flexible but provides a general reference.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Description of start zones:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 RED \u2013 the first start wave, whose runners gather near Victoria Cross. This zone is the earliest and is designated for those starting the race first.<br \/>\n\u2022 GREEN \u2013 a zone starting from a different location, Crows Nest, with the option of arriving by train and metro. This group starts slightly later than RED.<br \/>\n\u2022 ORANGE \u2013 a group also starting at Victoria Cross but with a delayed start \u2014 after the RED group.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #29495e;
