FAMILY ENTRIES

Get out and enjoy an active day with all the little people in tow! Our Family Entry is an affordable way to make this happen – and is intended to acknowledge the extra financial commitments that families with children face. Accordingly, this is not an entry option for just two adults. We’re sure you understand.

Family members may enter any event distance under a family group entry. A 15% discount off the total entry fees will be automatically applied when the following conditions are met.

Family group can consist of: 1 or 2 adults PLUS 1-4 children (under 18).

GROUP ENTRIES

Get 10% off with groups of 8 or more. Get in touch once you have at least 8 confirmed and we’ll get a discount code set up for you. The more the merrier on the coast this summer :-)

Email Mark once you have your group together.

Compulsory Equipment: Depending on the weather/forecast for event day, a call will be made by event staff on Thursday as to whether we will be implementing the below options for the competitors in the Super Long. This will be communicated to you before race day, but plan to need it all, and leave out the items not required if that call is made (Final decision to be made and communicated on event morning).

  • Option 1: Nothing

  • Option 2: Seam sealed jacket

  • Option 3: Long sleeve top (polyprop or wool), beanie (polyprop or wool), survival blanket, waterproof seam sealed jacket.

While some of this gear may seem excessive, we ask you to bring it for your safety. You may not need it while you are running or walking but if something happens and you have to stop you will need it. The event is on very exposed, rugged country and it can be very cold if you have to stay in one spot.
