What make us different?
We care about the environment and in an attempt to reduce our carbon footprint, we source EVERYTHING in the UK. By doing so, not only are we reducing our carbon foot print, we are also helping support other UK businesses too. Our medals are from sustainable sources and eco friendly. For every order we place, there will be a tree planted.
Refunds & Cancellation Policy
If due to circumstances beyond our control the event needs to be cancelled or rescheduled, your entry will automatically be transferred to the next local event. Due to the high costs of staging events such as this, we are unable to offer refunds.
Any change in distance after sign up will incur a cost if going up. For example, if you signed up to 10K and would like to then change to 15K, there would be an admin charge for the change. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer refunds when changing from a higher to a lower distance.
