The 1st edition of the XTERRA "THE NIGHT OF THE TRAILS" is part of the major sporting events in French Polynesia. Organized on May 24th, 25th, and 26th, 2024, in Moorea by the VSOP – XO association, it is under the auspices of the French Polynesia Athletics Federation (FAPF), under the high patronage of the Municipality of Moorea-Maiao, the Ministry of Youth and Sports, and in partnership with its private sponsors.
It is composed of the competition director, the president of the VSOP XO association or their representative, the race referee, and any person chosen for their skills by the competition director. The race committee is authorized to make all decisions for the smooth running of the races and to rule within a timeframe compatible with the event's imperatives on any claims made during the race. Decisions are final.

The marking will be ensured with direction signs (reusable) and biodegradable ribbons. Volunteer marshals will be present at points considered problematic. Taking a shortcut and/or cutting a trail lace or trajectory is not allowed and may result in disqualification. A runner must stay on the designated trails that are marked and/or specified as a course. It is the responsibility of the runner to know the designated course. The absence of marking on the course is not an excuse for taking a shortcut. Manual and electronic checkpoints (using the chip located in the runner's bib) are set up at strategic checkpoints to ensure that the runner has completed the entire course. Any failure to check in will result in the runner's disqualification. A thorough check will be carried out before the results are validated. Any violation of the regulations as well as any unsportsmanlike behavior observed by the race director or one of the human controls results in disqualification (definitive withdrawal from the race). See Article 9 - Faults.
Runners being overtaken must give way to the runners overtaking them. Runners must announce their intention to overtake verbally. It is the responsibility of the faster runner to overtake safely. Slower runners must yield to the passing runner upon first request, moving to the right when possible. In the event that two runners try to take the lead, the runners do not have to yield their positions to the other runner. However, a runner cannot interfere by blocking passage or otherwise impeding another runner's progress.
Refreshment points are set up every 5 km.
All supplies must be removed from the designated refreshment areas.
A basic first aid kit will be provided at all aid stations and at the start/finish line. "TAMARII TRAIL" 1KM

A vehicle provided by the organization will ensure the repatriation of the runners, and their luggage will be given back to them at the arrival site.
Any participant failing to comply with these rules may be subject to penalties, ranging from warnings to disqualification, depending on the severity of the offense. Penalties are decided by the race committee.
A runner who abandons the race must inform a race official (volunteer or race director). The runner's bib must be returned to the race official. If the runner needs to be evacuated, the runner must contact a race official to arrange for evacuation.

It is explicitly stated that runners participate in the competition at their own risk. The transfer of the bib is strictly prohibited. This transfer releases the organization from any responsibility in case of accident suffered or caused by this third party during the event. In the event of an accident, both the transferor and the recipient of the bib may potentially be held liable. The agent responsible for managing registrations on behalf of a group is required to inform participants of the race regulations, the prohibition of bib transfer, and may potentially, in the event of an accident, be held liable. Running without a bib is strictly prohibited, and any violators may potentially be held responsible. The organization cannot be held responsible in case of accidents suffered or caused by this third party. Bibs and race bags will be available for collection a few days before the events. Registered participants will receive an email and be notified via social media of the date and location for collection (likely at one of our partner locations). No bib collection will be available on the day of the race. Bib assignments are final. Wearing the bib is mandatory for all participants throughout the event. It must not be folded and must be placed in a visible manner, with organization sponsors and number clearly visible on the chest, under penalty of warning or disqualification. An electronic chip is attached to the bib for timing purposes. This chip must not be removed or tampered with for fraudulent purposes. Athletes with medical restrictions regarding wearing this type of chip must inform the Organizing Committee immediately.
A "personal baggage" tent will be available for runners wishing to deposit their belongings. Bags must be labeled with their bib number. The organizing committee disclaims any responsibility in case of loss or theft. Parking spaces will be provided for athletes around the site. It is important to adhere to this (no parking along the road) to avoid penalties.
Timing is conducted electronically by a provider engaged by the organizing committee or manually under the supervision of the FAPF chief referee. For the "NIGHT OF TRAILS" and "ITI TRAIL" events, runners will be provided with individual GPS tags, allowing tracking of their progress to ensure that the official route has been completed.
Official results are communicated by the organizing committee after validation by the FAPF chief referee, no later than three hours after the end of the race. They will be displayed in the village and on the website www.xterratahiti.com.

The organizing committee has taken out insurance covering the pecuniary consequences of its civil liability, that of its volunteers, and all participants in the Moorea Marathon 2024. Regarding the civil liability of participants, the intervention of this insurance for them is limited to accidents they could cause during the sporting event. This coverage will intervene in addition to or in the absence of other insurances that participants may benefit from.
The organizing committee declines any responsibility in case of theft, loss, breakage... suffered by the personal belongings of the participants even if it is in their custody. Participants cannot therefore hold the organizer responsible for any damage caused to their equipment. Taking out insurance to cover these risks is the responsibility of each individual.
