- Please practice physical distancing (stay 1.5m apart) and good hand hygiene (there will be lots of hand sanitiser) before and after your race.
- You must not attend if in the last 14 days you have been unwell (cough, sore throat, fever or shortness of breath) even if mild or had close contact with a known or suspected case of COVID-19.
- Anyone showing symptoms of COVID-19 during the event will be required to leave immediately.
- No congregating at the finish line.
- No hugging, handshaking or high fiving.
- Limit sharing equipment, this means being self sufficient with the equipment you need on the day.
- Please do not touch other people’s equipment or put on their number, unless they are from the same household as you.

You will also be required to register through Entry Boss, but operate in different way given that it is regular training.

A short, socially distanced, final race briefing may be contacted at the event by the Race Director.
There will be a designated area to return race numbers and transponders (when used).
