Question 1

Can I defer my entry?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you let us know via email at least one month before the date of the event we will be able to defer your entry to the following year's event.

Question 2

I've changed my mind.  Can I request a refund?

Accepted Answer

You are able to request a 50% refund of the entry fee and any merchandise add-ons up until 6 weeks before the date of the event.

We incur a number of fees immediately on sign up, so a 100% refund is not possible. However, you may be able to transfer your place to a friend or defer your entry until the following year free of charge.

Question 3

Do you have a pregnancy policy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, please drop us an email and share your good news!

We will then be able to defer your race place to the following year (or the year after that if you feel that you are still not ready to return to racing).

Question 4

What shoes should I wear?

Accepted Answer

We would suggest a light trail shoe for most of our events. Something that is going to be comfortable if the ground is hard, and one that will give you some support for any ruts on the course.

We will share the current ground conditions in the Race Pack that goes out to all runners the week before an event so that you can make your own decision. Footwear is such a personal choice.

Question 5

When do entries close?

Accepted Answer

Entries will close seven days before the event at 7pm, unless they sell out before this point.

Running has increased in popularity over recent years and a number of our events sold out as far out as a month before race day, so please do not leave it too late!

Question 6

Are there toilets on route?

Accepted Answer

There will be toilets available at the start/finish area, but there are no toilets on route for this race.

Question 7

Can I transfer my place to a friend?

Accepted Answer

You are able to transfer your entry free of charge to a friend up until one week before race day. Please do this by logging into your Eventrac account and selecting the option to transfer your place. You will need the name and email address of the person you are wishing to transfer your place to.

The transfer is not complete until the person taking the place has clicked through on the link received via email, completed their details and received a confirmation email of the transfer.

Question 8

Is there an insurance I can take out in case I'm injured on race day?

Accepted Answer

When entering a Race Harborough event, you have the option to purchase Refund Protect, which is an insurance policy that may allow you to claim a refund if you're unable to take part due to injury, illness or other covered circumstances.

Please note that Refund Protect is an insurance policy, not a guaranteed refund. Any claim must meet the insurer's terms and conditions and be supported by the required evidence. For example, a claim due to injury may require medical evidence.

We recommend checking the policy details carefully before purchasing so you understand what is covered and what documentation may be needed should you need to make a claim.

Refund Protect is optional and is provided by a third-party insurer, not Race Harborough.
