As an example if a club is short a runner in their B team, a runner from the A team could run.The spirit of the race is friendly and cooperative so runners are expected to help each other. As an example if a runner sees another runner go off course, the expectation is that the runner will be called back.Clubs / Teams are responsible for their own runners. If a runner gets lost/has an accident obviously anyone local to the incident would be expected to assist. However ultimately the club/team is responsible.Runners are expected to reccie their route. It is not acceptable practice to leave markers to remind or guide. The Way Markers, route maps and trail directions are sufficient.A team without a runner on a leg will receive a score of 50 points or 10 points more than the number of teams entered (whichever is greater. ) If a runner starts a leg but does not finish the team will be scored the points of the last finisher plus one.Age limits – In the view of the race organisers, if a club/team is confident a runner can navigate the route adequately and can run the distance that’s ok.
