How is the color of the bracelet determined?
The color of your bracelet is determined by your best time in any of the races in the series (21K, 10K, or 5K), regardless of the city.
It doesn’t matter where you were fastest. What matters is how high you finished.

A real gamification system, with levels, goals, and runner identity.
Complete the entire series.
The Super 21k Medal awaits you at the end.
It’s not about the race. It’s about the entire journey.
Join the series. Build your path. Earn your finish.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to run the same race in every city?
No. You can run 21K in Timișoara, 10K in Buzău, 5K in Brașov, and 21K in Bucharest. The important thing is to be a finisher in all four cities at one of the three distances: 21K, 10K, or 5K.
If I improve my time at a later stage, will the level change?
Yes. The best result from the entire series is taken into account.
If I only run 3 of the 4 races, do I get the bracelet?
No. The 21K Series bracelet is only awarded to those who complete all 4 stages.
How do I receive the bracelet?
The bracelet and charms are awarded at the end of the last stage in the series you have completed, after validating your participation in all four races.
How long do I have to complete the entire series?
You have two years to complete all races, regardless of which race you start with or in which order you complete them. The important thing is to finish all races within two years of starting the first one.
What happens if I don't meet any of the time thresholds?
You receive the orange bracelet – FINISHER. Because you saw the series through to the end.
Can the time thresholds be changed?
The thresholds are fixed for the current season of the 21K Series.
Are the time thresholds the same for all ages?
Yes, the thresholds are standardized for women and men, but the system rewards maximum individual performance, regardless of age. Each runner competes at their own level.
What happens if I register but cannot attend all the races?
You will receive medals for the races you participate in, but the 21K Series bracelet and complete charms are only awarded for completing the entire series.
