All finishers of the Open 10K race category will get the finisher medal post their run on race day (please collect your medal before leaving the venue; medals will not be posted to individual runners if they fail to collect on the race day.). While provisional results will be available by 5 pm on race day, timing certificates of Open 10K finishers will be available for download from https://www.sportstimingsolutions.in/ post 21 working days from race day.

5. Race Day tee is not offered to Open 10K participants, however, Finishers tee is offered to the overall top 1000 Men and 1000 Women Open 10K finishers (will be given within 60 days from race day). The fastest finishers will receive a communication of confirmation post 4 weeks of the event completion via email along with the process for getting the finishers tee. The Event Promoter and Asics (Event’s Sports Goods Partner) will try their best to accommodate the size selected by you. However, if unavailable, the next best available size tee will be offered. Any request for change of size of the Finishers Tee will not be entertained.

6. The "Years participated" on the Open 10K running bib is exclusively assigned to runners who have successfully completed the "Open 10K" race category in at least one edition of the TCS World 10K Bengaluru, in addition to the 2025 edition applied for.  Printed on the bib (e.g. 1 & running), the "Years participated" serves to recognize one's long-standing association with the event and their commitment to it. The number of years is determined by combining the participant's first name, last name, and date of birth. If a participant identifies an error in the "Years participated" specified in their application confirmation email, we kindly request them to contact us at tcsworld10k@procam.in, no later than 31st March 2025. The email must include the participant’s bib numbers for all editions of the event where he/she has completed the ‘Open 10K’ race category over the years. It is important to note that participants must have used the same first name, last name, and date of birth to ensure accurate "Years participated" is identified and allocated.

7. Please note no wheelchair/wheeled vehicle is allowed in the Open 10K, Majja Run and Senior Citizens’ Run race categories on race day.
