Six Foot Track Marathon - 2009 Entry Information

The date of the next race will be 8.00am, Saturday 14th March 2009.

We are very sorry but this year we had a limit of 850 runners imposed on us by Dept. of Lands. We now have over 900 entered so we are not taking any more entries. We were surprised to fill our quota so quickly with little fore-warning so it seems fair for this year to work on a first-come first-served basis. Although some people will drop out before race day or just not show up on race day, we will still have more than 850 so there is no point starting a waiting list. Sorry.  
If you have entered and can't make it on race day we have now stopped even giving refunds or holding entries over till another year - it is too close to the race now. If you have emailed us previously and you havn't heard back then we are still processing it (we got about 100 emails over the past couple of days).

Total entries to date = 868. Limit is 850 runners. ENTRIES CLOSED.

All entries received to date are listed, you can download the entrants list as :
