CONFIRMING RUNNER NAMES AND RUNNING ORDER:
Please confirm names and running order for your team(s), the deadline is by Wednesday 24th July, here:
TEAM CAPTAIN SUBMISSION FORM
If you have any problems making updates, then please just email teams amends to mail@cityruns.co.uk . After the deadline, we will make any emergency team changes on the day - this should be forced amends due to injury etc...no sneaky tactical changes!!
KEY INFO -
Please share with your team members.
Race Numbers:
Numbers will be issued on the day to teams - they should be collected by the nominated team leader. Numbers will display a team number and a letter - this represents the leg
order: A = 1st Leg B = 2nd Leg C = 3rd Leg D = 4th Leg
For age veteran, junior and mixed teams there will be a back number to show which
category the team is in... so you know who to chase!
Change Overs:
It is runner’s responsibility to ensure they are ready for their change over, our officials will seek to assist but ultimately it is the competitor’s responsibility to be ready and in the appropriate change over zone when incoming runners finishes.
Overtaking:
We have a great range of teams entered this year and no doubt it will be competitive within the different categories! However we do have some beginner and junior teams entered which is fantastic and we want to ensure everyone has a positive experience, so please brief ALL team members to be mindful of this if and when overtaking :-)
Car Parking:
Pay and display parking will be available at main Haldon Forest Park car park.
Toilets:
Next to main car park (the course is other side of the road).
Team Categories and Prizes:
To ensure we get things right we will not award medals on the night, they will be posted out the week afterwards. We hope to award the trophies for 1st Men, Lady and Mixed teams on the night.
KEY RULES - PLEASE NOTE :
- You can enter a team of mixed ages, we will assign you to the age cat based on the youngest person in the team, unless they are a junior then will default to a Senior team!
- If a team is short then a team member may run 2 legs - in the spirit of things we'd prefer this to be done only if necessary.
- Somebody may run for two different teams as long as they are in different team categories.
- Second claim club members can run as long as their first claim club is not taking part.
- Failure to enter a runner(s) that are eligible for that category - team will either be moved to correct category if available or downgraded to a non-scoring team
- Runners deemed to have gone early by the change over judge will be given a minimum time penalty of 20 seconds - this could be more or result in a DQ.
