Entry pricing

Online entries close at TBC unless sold out prior, after this time registrations can only be taken in person on the morning of the event at event base. (Late fees will apply).

Families & Groups

Family Entries

Get out and enjoy an active day with all the little people in tow! Our Family Entry is an affordable way to make this happen – and is intended to acknowledge the extra financial commitments that families with children face. Accordingly, this is not an entry option for just two adults. We’re sure you understand.

Family members may enter any event distance under a family group entry. A 15% discount off the total entry fees will be automatically applied when the following conditions are met.

Family group can consist of: 1 or 2 adults PLUS 1-4 children (under 18).

Group Entries

Get 10% off with groups of 8 or more. Get in touch once you have at least 8 confirmed and we’ll get a discount code set up for you. The more the merrier on the coast this summer :-)

Email Mark once you have your group together.

Registration

Once you have registered online, your race number and timing transponder can be collected on Saturday morning from 6:30am at the Dickey’s Flat Camp Ground event base (start/finish line). Please head to the Pre-Registered tent, our team will split the registrations alphabetically by surname e.g. A to G, H to O & P to Z.

If you would like to change your distance, please let the Total Sport staff member know and they will give you a new race number/transponder for your new distance (where possible). We recommend checking into this area at least 45 minutes prior to your scheduled start time.
