On the Day
We ask all participants to write the details together with a name and contact number of your next of kin (who is not a participant in the marathon) on the reverse of the number. This enables us to contact your next of kin and provide you a quality medical care in case of emergency.
The weather may be cold and rainy, so runners must dress properly. It is important to change out of wet gear as soon as possible.
If it is a hot day, runners are encouraged to slow down or stop. Failure to do so may result in a rapid rise in temperature to dangerous levels, resulting in hear stroke which can cause damage to organs such as liver, brain and kidneys.
If you do find you need medical attention, go to one of the race's First Aid posts, which will be located at various points along the race route.
Runners are encouraged to continue walking after finishing the race. Do not stand about getting cold. Symptoms such as nauseous, vomiting, dizziness and weakness may be the result from standing still or stopped walking. Get your kit and change into warm, dry clothing. Drink in moderation and have something to eat.
