Once the limit is reached, we cannot accept further entries under any circumstances. So get your entry in early!<\/p>\n<p>We regret that self-propelled wheelchairs and hand-cycles are not permitted as parts of the course may be unsuitable.<\/p>\n<p>For reasons of safety, participants agree to \u2018run\u2019 the course and not use roller skates\/bicycles\/wheelbarrows or other mobility related objects e.g. skipping ropes. &#8216;Props&#8217; and costumes that may inhibit others cannot be used. Dogs (and other pets) are also not permitted.<\/p>\n<p>The use of headphones for MP3 players is strongly discouraged and may result in disqualification. Marshal instructions, fellow participants and other users of the course\/highways cannot be heard.<\/p>\n<p>BUH&amp;AC makes every effort to ensure that this race is held as scheduled. However, in the event of causes outside our control triggering a race cancellation, please note that our policy is to not encourage the refund of entry fees. As is common with other \u2018community-inclusive appropriately-priced\u2019 running events organised by athletic clubs, we would hope to attempt to reschedule the event and offer a carry-over instead. Where this is not possible, we would hope entrants will appreciate that an event of this scale is many months in the planning with considerable attendant cost, much of which is either spent or committed well ahead of the event.<\/p>\n<p>Entries cannot be exchanged or refunded after purchase unless the event is cancelled. If the event is cancelled (for any reason) you may seek a refund of the entry fee. Personal arrangements including travel, accommodation or hospitality relating to the Bolton 10K which have been arranged by you are at your own risk. Liability for the cancellation or rescheduling of an Event will be limited to the refund as set out in these terms and conditions. We will not be responsible for any loss, theft or damage of your personal belongings, other than caused as a result of our negligence or other breach of statutory duty.<\/p>\n<p><b>ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED ON THE DAY FOR THE 10K RACE<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Due to data entry limitations and medical requirements, we regret that we also cannot transfer entries if someone is unable to make the race.
