2025 Event Guide coming soon
As you may have noticed, our Live Trail system has been updates and now works off QR codes read by mobile phones/devices. This weekend’s event was the first time we’ve used the updated product out ‘in the real world’ and despite many hours of testing in advance of the challenge, we saw some ‘in the field’ issues which we hadn’t planned for.
We are sorry that for some people this meant a missed ‘scan’ at the start line, affecting overall finishing times – if this is you, please complete our short form below and we will get your time updates within 24 hours, so that you can successfully download an accurate certificate for your challenge.
Moving forward, we will continue to test & work with Live Trail to ensure we don’t encounter these issues again on future events.
If you have registered ON OR BEFORE the 10th March your name and start time will be on the Start Time list. If you have not received your e-ticket please download the starting list below and fill in our ‘Start Time Change Form’. We will try our best to accommodate your request but we are only able to consider start time changes that fall under one of the below:
Anyone registered ON or AFTER 11th March will receive your Start Time on your E-ticket by close of play Wednesday 27th March.
If you have registered ON OR BEFORE the 26th March your name, start time & bib number will be on the list linked below.
PLEASE NOTE: If your name is not on the list or if you have not received your E-ticket and you registered on or before the 26th March, please complete the E-ticket request form linked on the list and the team will be in touch.
