Question 1

How do I know if I am registered to run a race?

Accepted Answer

If you enter online, you should receive an acknowledgement email confirming your entry. Should you not receive this confirmation email within 24 hours of your entry, there is a chance that it may have dropped into your junk mailbox so please check your junk emails before you contact us to confirm you contact us to confirm your place. 
Postal entries will be acknowledged by email so please ensure that it is clearly written on your postal form.

Question 2

Can someone else register for me?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can enter multiple people when entering online or by post, provided you have all of the required details for all entrants.

Question 3

What is the difference between attached / affiliated and unattached / unaffiliated?

Accepted Answer

Runners who are members of a UK Athletics affiliated running club are ‘attached’ or ‘affiliated’ runners. 
Some clubs don’t have a UKA affiliation and some runners aren’t members of a club at all; if this is the case, then you are an ‘unattached’ or ‘unaffiliated’ runner. You can still enter your club name to on the entry form so that it’s listed in the results, but you won’t benefit from an affiliated entry rate.
