The Trek Difference
At no extra cost, with every booking
Race registration handled by Trek
We register you directly with the event organizer. No wrestling with foreign websites or payment forms.
Bib collection from race HQ
We collect your bib from the race expo. No queueing on race eve while your legs cramp.
Bib delivered to your hotel room
Your bib will be waiting for you at reception the day before the race. One less thing to worry about.
Dedicated Trek contact on-site
A local Trek team member is on the ground throughout your trip. Local SIM, local knowledge, real support.
Race-day logistics support
Transport to the start line, cheer zones, recovery meal coordination — we sweat the small stuff so you don't.
Whether you bus, drive, or fly
All of the above is included at no extra cost — even if you arrange your own transport. That's the Trek way.
