90 MINUTES CUT OFF TIME
When looking at the event timetable we have to juggle the demands of local businesses, the goodwill of our 100+ volunteers and the desires of our running friends. Please remember this is a 100% volunteer organised and supported event. In order to have the race we need to ensure that the roads are opened as soon as possible.
We recognise that the course is not ideal for slower runners. There is a possibility that runners returning to the SPA after 90 minutes will be faced with the start of the Fun Runs on the SPA approach road.
To minimise this risk:
If you are in the position that you have not finished before 1130 then we ask that you step off the course whilst the Fun Run runners pass you. It will be only add a few seconds to your time.
COVID
We will follow all relevant guidance from UK Government, our governing body - England Athletics and local health officials.
GOODIES
ADDRESSES
Previously a large proportion of entries contained incorrect address information. I understand most information is now auto populated by your browser but having wrong address information pushes up our costs. Please check your address when prompted as you confirm your entry.. Runners with poor format addresses will not have their number posted to them but will be required to collect their race number on race day.
GDPR
The entry system has a tick box asking if you are ok to recieve emails from it. If you do not allow this then you wont receive any updates from the race team nor receive the race joining instructions.
UK Athletics URN
The entry system asks for your EA URN to check details and allow the £2 discount. Your entry details have to match those held by UKA or the check does not work.
