One day left to register for Comrades
Avid Comrades Marathon runners have only a day left until the close of business on Friday, 30 November to get their entry in and secure their place at the start of the 2014 ‘Ultimate Human Race’.
The Comrades Marathon Association (CMA) has decided to close the entry process a day prior to the originally planned closure, due to the cap of 18,000 entries being reached ahead of schedule.
However, the CMA will allow Comrades Marathon enthusiasts who have not yet entered the iconic race to make their entry before 4.30pm, at which time online entries and in-house entries at the Comrades Marathon offices will close.
CMA General Manager, Chris Bruwer says: ‘We will still accept postal entries but they must be postmarked by the Post Office with tomorrow’s date, 29 November 2013. Entries made after this date will be rejected.’
Runners who are going to submit their entry via post are reminded to submit their entry form and proof of payment, using one of the following options; cheque, postal order or direct deposit.
All cheques, postal orders and direct deposits must be made payable to the Comrades Marathon Association. Post your entry to Comrades Marathon Association, PO Box 100621, Scottsville, 3209. No late entries will be accepted.
