How marathon & run registration works on Vihaya Events

6 steps from signup to live event. Most organisers go live in under 5 minutes.

1. Create the race

Add the date, start point, and route description. Publish the cut-off times so runners self-select the right category.

2. Add race categories

5K, 10K, half and full marathon each become a sub-event with its own entry fee, seat cap and closing date.

3. Capture participant data

Age, gender, T-shirt size, emergency contact, blood group and medical notes. Mark the safety-critical fields required.

4. Take entries by UPI

Runners pay by UPI, card or net banking and receive a QR-coded confirmation immediately.

5. Run bib collection

Scan QR codes at the expo or collection desk. Scoping the scanner per category keeps the queues separate and the counts honest.

6. Export for timing

Export the confirmed list with bib data and categories as CSV for your timing partner. The file carries a UTF-8 BOM so Excel opens names correctly.

Built for marathon & run registration in India

Race categories

Each distance is a sub-event with independent pricing, capacity and closing date, so the half marathon can sell out while the 5K stays open.

Safety data capture

Emergency contact, blood group, medical conditions and age as required fields — the data a race organiser is expected to hold.

T-shirt and kit sizing

Collect sizes at registration and export the totals, so the kit order is based on real numbers rather than an estimate.

QR bib collection

Check runners in at the expo by scanning their confirmation, with live counts of who has collected.

Team and group entries

Corporate teams and running clubs can enter together under one booking, each member with their own details and their own QR.

Clean CSV export

Exports carry a UTF-8 byte-order mark, so non-ASCII runner names open correctly in Excel instead of being mangled.

§FAQ · Marathon & Run Registration

Marathon & Run Registration on Vihaya Events — common questions

Last updated 2026-05-09.

Can I sell different race distances at different prices?

+
Yes. Set each distance up as a sub-event — 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon — with its own entry fee, participant cap and closing date. They appear together on one event page and runners pick their category, but each fills and closes independently.

What participant data can I collect?

+
Anything you need, through custom registration fields: age, gender, date of birth, T-shirt size, emergency contact name and number, blood group and medical conditions. Fields can be marked required so an entry cannot complete without the safety-critical ones.

How does bib collection work?

+
Every confirmed entry carries a QR code. At the expo or collection desk, scan it with the free check-in app to mark the bib as collected and see live counts. You can scope a scanner to a single category so queues stay separate.

Can I export the list for my timing partner?

+
Yes. Export confirmed entries as CSV or PDF with all registration fields included. The CSV carries a UTF-8 byte-order mark, so runner names with non-ASCII characters open correctly in Excel rather than appearing corrupted.

Can running clubs and corporate teams enter together?

+
Yes. Team registration lets one person enter several runners in a single booking, with each member's own details captured and each receiving their own QR code and bib confirmation.
