I confirm that I have read, and will comply with, the FRA “Requirements for Runners”,and especially the “absolute no-nos” of fell running. I acknowledge and agree that I am responsible for determining whether I have the skills equipment and fitness to participate in this event.I accept that neither the Race Organiser nor the Fell Runners Association shall be liable to me for any injury, loss or damage of any nature to me or my property arising out of my participation in this race (other than in respect of death or personal injury as a result of their negligence). I consent to publication of my name, club, race category, race number, finishing time and race position in race pre-entry and results lists, and to the sharing of all the above details with trusted partner organisations (e.g. UK Athletics) for disciplinary purposes or otherwise where necessary in the interests of the sport. 

For Junior participants the parent/responsible adult has to complete a parental consent form and hand it in at registration. 

Weather conditions/postponements/entry fees: in the event of inclement weather (particularly the chance of thunderstorm etc) we will do our utmost to run the events but safety will not be compromised under any circumstances. Should we have to postpone an event all entries and fees will be transferred to a re-scheduled date; if you cannot make this date then entry fees will be held over as a credit towards future Kong Mountain Marathons OR refunds will be given less a 25% admin fee (to cover our ongoing event costs). 

Cancellations or transfers for injuries or other reasons: We allow cancellation of entries up to 1 month before the event, or latest 31st July 2023. In case of cancellation a 25% admin fee will be deducted from your entry fee before refund. After the 31st July 2023 no refunds are possible. Until Friday midnight before the event it is possible to change runners / partners. Please make sure all the event safety information, emergency details are fully up to date and the new runner / partner is fully aware of all the conditions and safety measures of the event.

If you hire a dibber from us you are responsible to return it unharmed. If you loose a dibber we will have to charge you the replacement cost of one - £30. If you break a dibber we will charge half the cost of a replacement - £15. 

The category you fall in is determined based on your age on the day of the race or the oldest runner in your pair. We also have an Under 23 category (based on the youngest runner in a pair), but the SI entries system cannot apply more than one age rule. Therefore please let us know at registration and we will change the category for you.
