Following a second failed payment, Waitlist registrations will be notified by email and have until 5:00pm the following day to make a manual payment. If payment is not received by this time the runner will be withdrawn from the event wait list.

Waitlisted runners may withdraw their registration at any time prior to being promoted into the event. Once promoted and entry fees paid there is no refund post May 16th 2023.
