How to enter (for participants)

  • You do not need to do anything but run a race on our ATM calendar. As soon as you are an official finisher in the Top 25 of an Asia Trail Master points race you get an automatic profile and points. If the race was 70 km long, you will also get a profile and score a point for your Grandmaster Quest.

  • Participants are of course strongly advised to check the registration policy and conditions of entry on the webpage of each individual race belonging to the Asia Trail Master Championship series. 

As a general principle, any person taking part in any ATM-promoted race should do so willingly and should follow that particular race's instructions at all times, as well as have appropriate medical, travel and accident insurance cover. Runners at every single event will be required to sign a waiver attesting to the fact that they are in good health and fit for the physical effort required for participating in long distance running races. Kuai Sports Promotions Ltd, as promoter of the ATM Championship series, declines all liability if health problems or serious injuries are experienced during an event promoted under the Asia Trail Master Championship series.

  • All participants in any kind of endurance sports events are encouraged to have a regular health check up, as well as to confirm if participation in outdoor sports events is included in their personal medical insurance policy.

Multimedia disclaimer: By joining an event on the ATM calendar, both Championship Points Races and Candidate races, you give Asia Trail Master authorization to use and post any photographs, videotapes, recordings or any other record of our event, including full names of any participants, before during or after the event for promotional use, live event broadcasting, reporting to the traditional media and to publish on our website and social media channels. You will not be entitled to any compensation for the use of your name or image.

If you have any questions or require assistance on insurance, please contact our staff.
