About:
28th Windsor Half Marathon
The Windsor Half Marathon 2010 is now full.
We have a limited number of Golden Bond Charity places available at a cost of £135 per entry, with all monies going direct to the named charities
CRASH or Prince Philip Trust.
Refunds:
The moment you enter our race we start to incur administration costs and banking charges, simply in processing your entry and payment. We also incur further charges in administering cancellations and processing refund payments. No refund can be given if the race has to be cancelled or postponed due to circumstances outside our control, for instance by order of the government due to foot and mouth. Your entry fee is invested in the cost of staging the event, and the main costs to contractors, suppliers, administration etc are already committed well before race day. Furthermore most races do not offer any form of refund at all if a runner decides to cancel their place because of injury, illness, lack of training or change of plan. There are many other instances of higher priced services, such as plane, train or theatre tickets where no refunds can be given for cancellation in these circumstances. Running in someone else's race number can have very serious consequences if the runner suffers a medical emergency - we have had cases where we have been unable to identify or contact families of runners who have suffered potentially life-threatening conditions whilst using someone else's race number. The accuracy of the race results is also affected when runners are placed in the wrong age and sex category.
Transfers:
Transfers of an entry to another person are permitted with the organisers consent up until 1st August 2010. Please download a substitution entry form, the substitute must fill it in and send it with your name and address with a cheque for £6 made payable to Windsor Half Marathon to Windsor Half Marathon, PO Box 2070, Stourbridge, West Midlands. DY8 1WX. Please note that your race number must not be given to anyone else, this will result in them being disqualified and also if part of a team, this will result in the team being disqualified. |
