ENTRIES

Race bibs will be used for each of the 4 interclub races. Athletes must enter the race in order to obtain their race bib. Athletes are encouraged to enter online prior to the race, and if they do so by Friday 12 May, their race bib will be personalised with their name. Athletes must uplift their race bib from the WHAC clubrooms at least 30 minutes prior to the start of their race.  Their race bib must be worn on the front of their club singlet. You must be a financial member of the club to enter. Pay your subs!

Entries can also be made at the WHAC clubrooms up to 30 minutes prior to the start of the race.

Avoid the long queues by entering online and arriving at the WHAC clubrooms early. Race HQ is open from 11.30am. The race bib will be scanned at the finish to produce the race results. Only those athletes wearing a race bib will have their time and place recorded in the results.
