CONDUCT OF WAMC EVENTS
           
1. Race Director
           
A Race Director as nominated on the Programme controls each event. All enquires should be directed to that person. If you do not intend to compete but wish to HELP, then contact the Race Director, preferably a couple of days prior.
           
2. Registration (Normal Club Runs)
           
With the exception of mob runs, all runners are required to display the official WAMC number on the front of the body, and register prior to the event (preferably 30 minutes before the stated start time).
           
Members $3.00 Children under 16 $1.00
           
Non-members $6.00 (members or non-members)
           
For events designated "B" (Breakfast or other social after the run)

3. Finish
           
The race finishes at the start of the chute – SLOW DOWN to a walk in the chute. NEVER PASS anyone in the chute – times are recorded at the start of the chute and places at the end of the chute.
           
4. Basic Road Running Rules
           
4.1 OBEY all road traffic laws and directions given by the Police.
           
4.2 ALWAYS RUN ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE ROAD unless directed otherwise. Run with caution and commonsense – Remember runners do not have the right of way, so don’t expect it. In a collision the runner will be the loser every time.
           
4.3 BE COURTEOUS to your fellow runner –
           
DON’T push or shove
           
DON’T cut off other runners
