Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Is there an age limit for running in the race?

A. There is no upper age limit for the race however all applicants must be 15 or over on the day of the race.

Q. I want to raise money for a charity or cause which isn’t listed is that possible?

A. Yes you can run for any charity or cause you choose. The profits from the initial registration fee, after race expenses are covered, will go to Jane’s Appeal but you can raise sponsorship for any charity or cause which is close to your heart if you prefer. Many larger charities will be able to provide you with their own sponsorship forms but if not we can provide with something appropriate. To request a sponsorship form please email us at [EMAIL="info@runforall.com"]info@runforall.com[/EMAIL].

Q. I sent my application by post but have not received any confirmation of a place. Should I be worried?

A. The cashing of cheques is recognised as an indication that your entry has been received. Providing your profile fits our criteria (e.g. minimum 15 years old on race day and no illness which would preclude taking part) your entry will be accepted. Please note that given the volume of entries it may take up to two weeks to process your cheques. Fundraising packs which have been requested will be issued as soon as possible but please note you can print sponsorship forms from the website if you wish. Approximately 1 month before the event we will be looking to issue batches of race numbers, timing chips and race day instructions.

If you have not receive a race number by 7th June please contact us immediately via [EMAIL="info@runforall.com"]info@runforall.com[/EMAIL]

A. Cancellation policy
If for any reason you need to cancel your application to run the race the entry fee you have paid will be donated to Jane’s Appeal. You will, however, be given priority to submit an application for the following year’s event providing you pay the appropriate entry fee prevailing at the time you reapply. However, should you be able to provide a medical certificate to indicate you were unable to take part then consideration will be given to allowing a free entry into the event for the following year.

Q. Is the course flat?

A. Whilst there are a few modest inclines and downhill stretches the course is relatively flat.

Q. When will I receive a fundraising Pack?

A. You will receive a T-shirt as a memento when you finish the race. T-shirts may also be included with some of the fundraising packs.
