Medical Requirements
As a requirement for entry into the White Horse Half Marathon it is mandatory to complete your personal and medical details on the back of your race number. You also agree that this information may be made available, along with any other personal details the event organisers hold, to the relevant medical and civil authorities in the event of an emergency. Part of the event’s terms and conditions are that in an emergency you agree to these bodies supplying your contact details back to the race. By displaying this number you are agreeing to the terms and conditions of this event and to abide by its rules. Please complete all sections of the form on the back of your race number legibly in block capitals using a waterproof ballpoint pen or similar. Your next of kin/emergency contact should be someone who will be contactable on the day of this event.
If you have an existing medical problem which may require special attention, such as allergies, diabetes or a history of heart problems, you should mark a visible cross in black felt tip pen on the front of your race number.
Participating in an endurance event inherently carries a risk. If you are uncertain as to whether you are properly prepared for this event please check the Runners Medical Resource website which offers advice on how to look after your body and to have a safe and healthy race.
It is very important that you do not give your race number to another runner. If your number is found to have been given to someone else this will lead to your disqualification by the race officials. Doing so would have potentially serious consequences in an emergency as well as causing chaos with the results and prize giving.
