• What time does each run start?

  Please refer to the schedule on this website for the start time for each date, as start times are specific to the event date.

• When do I collect my race number? When should I arrive at the run?

  Race numbers can be collected either; the day before raceday - we inform all the specific details for race number collection 14 days before each run. Alternatively, race numbers can be collected on raceday, from 1 hour 15 minutes before the start of your race. Note that race number collection on the raceday closes 15 minutes before the start of each race.
  Races start on time, so it is important that you arrive in good time. If you already have collected your race number, then we recommend you arrive no less than 30 minutes before your race start time. If you still need to collect your race number, you should arrive at least one hour before race start, to allow enough time for you to collect your race number and to prepare adequately.

• How do I use my race tags?

  All participants are issued with shoe timing tags, which electronically record your finish time. Please refer to the instructions on the shoe tag envelope for the correct fitting and usage of shoe tags.. Tags must be returned at the race finish to the medal table at the same time as the race finisher collects their finishing medal.

• Do I have to run? Can I walk? Can I push my baby in a stroller?

  Our runs attracts runners of all ability. Hence many in each run will walk for a period of time, which is quite ok! Parents that wish to push their baby in a stroller are welcome to participate. Our courses are safe for this purpose - all we ask is that those with strollers start at the back, so as not to impede other runners. Aside from baby strollers, participants are not allowed to use any other wheeled or alternative form of propulsion, for the safety of all.

• What happens if I can't participate? Or if I get injured on the run?

  All those that register can swap to another run date, so long as you let us know at least 7 days before the scheduled run date, please see our terms and conditions for more details. It is not possible to get a refund if you are unable to participate. For those that suffer an injury during the race, we have on site paramedics that will attend to you. There is also an ambulance available in the case of an extreme emergency. It is important to note that each participant takes part in our events run completely at their own risk and enter only after agreeing to our race waiver. All participants should ensure that they are fully able to participate and consult a doctor prior to participating if they have any doubt over their ability to participate.

• When is the latest I can register for the run? I forgot to register, can I register on race day?
