We also have a group booking at a discounted rate available for 6 runners available to purchase on the RunThrough website For any larger groups, please email info@runthrough.co.uk and we can get you signed up on mass.

  • When will entries close?

Entries will close the Friday before the race. If the event reaches our max capacity, we will close entries early. We recommend entering early to avoid disappointment.  We will take on the day entries at our information desks, should the race not sell out.

  • I can no longer make the event, can I get a refund?

Unfortunately we operate a no refunds policy. Where possible we’d be more than happy to transfer your entry to another event. To do this, please email in with your order number and choice of new event.  We are sadly unable to transfer you entries within 14 days of the race as your race pack and everything associated with your entry fee including your medal, and post race goodies have already been paid for by this time. Alternatively, we would be happy for you to run the event virtually and we can send your medal out to you in the post. To do this, please simply send through a copy of your recorded run and confirm your postal address and we will have them posted out right away.

  • Can I transfer my entry to a friend?

Yes, we can happily swap the names associated with a booking. Please email in with your order number, and the new runners name, email, address and date of birth.

  • When will I be sent all the race details?

You should receive a race information email the Friday prior to the race. Please check your spam folders as they do sometimes get lost! The same information will also be published on the website the week leading up to the event, along with our entry list. If for any reason you do not receive the email, please check the website. If you’ve entered 2 weeks prior to the race, your bib number and timing chip will be posted to you. You can expect to receive this in the week prior to the run. If for some reason it doesn’t arrive in time, please just visit the information desk on the morning of the race and we can issue you a replacement. For those who’ve entered closer to the race date, you will be able to collect your race packs at the registration desks in the event village on the day.

We strongly advise against wearing headphones, but we don’t have any bans on them.
