Six Foot Track Marathon - Entry Procedure 2011

Entry procedure for 2011:

For the 2010 race, we completely filled our quota of 850 runners and a wait-list of approx 150 runners within 12 hours and this caused a lot of runners to feel that they missed out, although eventually everybody who wanted to run, got a spot, including all previous finishers who wanted to enter. This year we want to make sure that the uncertainty is not there, although we expect to be over-subscribed again, so we will be amending our procedure before we open entries to make the whole process easier to manage for all. As always if you have any questions please contact us.

Entries are unfortunately still capped at 850 and the online entry system is scheduled to go live on 1st December 2010 at 9am. Without going into detail at this stage (it will become clearer later), the entry procedure will have special allowance for categories of "guaranteed entrants" and all previous finishers, whilst still accommodating a "fair" proportion of novices, so that the race continues to thrive.

Compare with procedure for 2010.
