Wait List Policy

A waiting list for entries will be set in place once the field limit of 200 4-stage participants is reached. The following conditions apply to the wait list:

• An entrant must pay an entry deposit of 20% of the entry fee for their chosen event to be added to the wait list (ie. If a solo runner enters then their deposit is 20% of the solo entry fee).
• If and when an entry becomes available, entry spots will be offered to the names on the wait list in chronological order. You will have a limited number of days to accept or decline that entry spot.
• If someone on the wait list is offered a spot and they accept the entry, they must pay the balance of their entry fee when they complete their entry.
• If someone on the wait list is offered a spot and they decline the entry, they will be refunded their entry deposit less an administration fee of 10% of the deposit (ie. If a solo runner then 10% of the solo entry fee will be retained as an admin charge).
• If someone on the wait list is not offered a spot, then their full entry deposit will be refunded approx 3 weeks before the event.
• If someone on the wait list no longer wants to participate in the event, they can withdraw from the wait list at any time and receive a full refund of their entry deposit.

We ask for a monetary deposit when adding your name to the wait list to ensure there is a genuine level of commitment and intention to race. Having entry certainty helps us plan and order appropriate infrastructure, staffing and consumables, minimising waste and unnecessary costs. (Prior to having a paid wait list many runners would add themselves multiple times and withdraw without telling us – adding greatly to our admin time).
