Nationwide Swindon Half Marathon – 9th Sept 18
Good evening all, I hope this email finds everyone nice and ready for Sunday’s race ? We’re in race week now, so I wanted to get a few bits of info out to everyone in the run up to the race I’m conscious that if I bombard you all with too much info, you just won’t read it anyway, as choosing which shoes to wear on Sunday and checking the BBC weather app every two mins is way more important, so I’m going to drip feed it out to you all in a few emails this week. In this first instalment email I’ll cover the following : Race information pack Registration and Bib collection On the day entries Who to contact Getting to the start and road closures Race information pack In order to reduce paper waste, you can download the race information pack here: https://www.newswindonhalf.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Swindon-Half-Race-Booklet.pdf Please take a few minutes to read through this, as it contains some important information for the day. Registration and bib collection By now, all 2,400 of you should have had an email from DBmax, who are our timing and bib supply partners for the race, relating to your bib and information. If you entered before August 3rd, you should by now have received your bib in the post. If you entered between August 3rd and Saturday, when entries closed, your bib will be waiting for you to collect on race weekend There’s two windows for our registration tent to be open to collect packs at the race start in the County Ground Car park: Saturday the 8th Sept 18:00-20:00 Sunday the 9th Sept 06:00-07:15 I would strongly advise people to try and collect their packs on the Saturday if you can as it’ll save rushing around race morning, and could also mean you get an extra hour in bed Sunday morning, which is always a positive. If you’ve not had an email from DBmax or you entered before 3rd August and have not yet received your bib, please drop them a mail at swindonhalf@dbmax.co.uk You will only get your Bib in the post, and your shirt will be available to collect at the finish line along with your medal I’m afraid that now the race is fixed and frozen, we can not make any name changes to entries, sorry Both the shirts* and medals are now with us and ready for you all:
