With the exception of the 2 international Open races for Men and Women, athletes affiliated to Athletics NZ will be invited in order of their ranking based on their performance in the athletic season leading up to 10 March 2013, to run in the above age group races. A free invitation will apply to 6, (top ranked) of 15 places in each race. The remaining field will have an entry fee apply - $15 under 19 and $44 over 20. Payment must be made at the time of picking up your race pack.
Athletics Auckland and the Event Organisers cannot previously reserve entries for additional registered athletes wishing to enter the Athletic races in the event. However, athletes registered with Athletics NZ can register an interest in running in one of the athletic races by advising us of their interest in competing at:
[email protected]
The field for each race will be drawn by 10 March 2013 - first by accepting the top 6 ranked athletes in each race, then accepting additional entries on a first come, first served basis, but according to 2012/13 performance, from those registering interest. The fields will be advised in mid-March. Those unsuccessful will have the option to run in the public race event, (with the exception of wheelchairs - see Terms & Conditions).
All participants will recieve a downloadable certificate with their personal Queen St Golden Mile time!
NB: The athletic mile races are separate from the public, corporate and promotional races within the Queen Street Golden Mile event, and require separate registration of interest, at [email protected].
