• Series Cancellation Policy:

  • Once we have committed to organising the series we incur costs, therefore we will not be able to offer refunds - entries rolled over to another 5mile race or a Summer 5k.

  • Due the event being a Winter seafront series we could be effected by bad weather, we will always seek to strike the right balance between giving people adequate notice if we need to cancel and giving maximum chance of the race going ahead.

  • If we were forced into a last minute route change we would either a) scratch race from series standings or, b) Use results to predict what 5 mile time would have been. A final decision on this would be made by Race Director, based on what was fairest outcome.
