​

Venue:

Emirates Arena 

​

Athletes:

Open to athletes in the U17 age group and above 

​

Please note: Over 3,000m, U15s are required to run in a separate heat.

As such, we will only be able to provide an U15 3000m heat if we have enough athletes to make this viable in the timetable. U15s interested in competing over 3,000m at this meeting should

make an expression of interest on q-buster. 

​​

Events:

3,000m 

800m (invitation only)

​​

We are running a couple of 'invitational' 800m races for U20, U23 & Senior athletes and looking for an expression on interest on q-buster. We will be in touch if you are successful. 

 

Entry: 

Entries open on q-buster on Wednesday 4th December at 19:00

Online entry only - £12  ​

​

Entries will operate on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE basis, once the event is full entries will close, so please enter quick to avoid missing out. Sometimes it appears like entries are full when in fact there's still some space. Please refresh the page and come back to it, more spaces might appear! 

However we will operate a waiting list. If you are unable to secure a space please add yourself to the waiting list

& we will be in touch if a space becomes available. 

​

Waiting List:

We have added a new waiting list option on q-buster, this will open on Thursday 5th December at 19:00.

​

Withdrawals:

We would like to add as many athletes as possible from the waiting list so please let us know if you are no longer able to compete.   

 Refunds will be given up to the week of the event. 

We aim to get as many people a run as possible but if for whatever reason this is not possible, we will refund your entry. 

   

Prize Pot:

Additionally, there will be a 'prize pot' available to the overall fastest in each of the men's and women's events IF they break the following target times:

​

3,000m Men: 8.10

 3,000m Women: 9.10

If only one athlete achieves the time he or she will claim the prize pot. If more than one winner achieves the times it will be split equally (i.e. if two winners break the times they will get half the pot, etc - to a maximum of two winning athletes sharing the pot).

​

Pacemakers:

As always, this job is crucial to the success of the meet and we are keen to add to our pacemaking stable. So, if you feel you would like to help athletes achieve a new PB, then please get in touch, whether this event or in future.
