First of all a big thanks to all of you who have signed up for this year’s event which has sold out – please read the important message below from the Race Director.
Dear Runners,
this morning we did another full inspection of the race route in Cliveden and the ground conditions are GOOD – meaning as one can expect for a XC in winter: some puddles, some mud, a couple of very short slippery sections, otherwise no problem.
So based on the general conditions at this stage the RACE IS STILL GOING AHEAD ON SUNDAY.
BUT PLEASE NOTE: The National Trust has a policy whereby if there is a storm/high winds beyond a certain threshold, they close the ground to the public for safety reasons. This means the situation can change at very short notice.
THEREFORE we will review the situation tomorrow lunch time again and if necessary provide further update. We recommend you please check your emails/the event website both on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning on race day.
Unfortunately the weather conditions are outside of our control, but we for obvious reasons do not want to make any premature decision either.
REMINDER: in the event of a cancellation a reserve date of 12th January has been arranged.
Best Regards,
Alan Watson (Cliveden XC Race Director)

Hi Steve,
we are still accepting individual requests for entry on the day this year. I will pass on your name (plus 1) to the registration team. If you turn up on Race Day no later than 8:45 you will be able to enter on the day.
Great news thank you, see you tomorrow 🙂
Hello,
Are there entries available on the day (5th or 12th?)
Kind regards,
Léan
Hi Lean,
we are still accepting individual requests for entry on the day this year. I will pass on your name to the registration team. If you turn up on Race Day no later than 8:45 you will be able to enter on the day.
Same question as the other people: Is it possible to get an entry on the day for the Cliveden race ? I entered the cancelled rave in 2010 (or 2009)but lost my entry fee.
I’d love to race it this year.

AS others, I’d hoped to enter on the day, perhaps you could add my name to the registration team?
Due to the car parking situation ( see https://burnhamjoggers.co.uk/2014/01/cliveden-xc-2014-sunday-5th-jan-update-2/ ) as of yesterday evening we are no longer accepting any NEW requests for entries on the day.
Our apologies!

Hi,
What’s the earliest time we can enter on the day? Also, would my husband be able to complete entries for both of us or would I need to register in person? Many thanks!
Registration opens at 8:15 Sunday morning and all runners will have to register in person.
Regards
Thank you. We will both see you in the morning to register.
can I enter on day please
Pete – due to the car parking situation ( see https://burnhamjoggers.co.uk/2014/01/cliveden-xc-2014-sunday-5th-jan-update-2/ ) as of yesterday evening we are no longer accepting any NEW requests for entries on the day. So unfortunately the answer is no this time.
Our apologies!

My wife, Katy Walker, has an entry but can’t race tomorrow. Can I take her timing chip and number instead?
Hi Mr Walker – yes that is ok. I’ve just informed the Registration team so you can get the details updated at registration.

Hi – I am hoping to come along to support tomorrow – I’m an NT member but grounds don’t open to troubled until 10am. Is it possible to get in earlier as a supporter?
Thanks,
Nic
Hi Nic,
unfortunately we need to give runners who paid the entree fee priority therefore due to the circumstances will won’t be able to let non-runners in to park before 10am.
Regards
Hi
I am a NT member who often spends Sunday mornings walking around teh Cliveden estate. I was planning to enter this race on the day.
I realise that parking is problematic – but not sure of there is seperate parking for NT members.
Is it possible that I can still enter on the day?
Is it possibel for me to coem and watch the race – or would this aslo be problematic because if parking issues?
Many thanks for your help
Andrew
Hi Andrew,
I’m afraid there is no separate parking for NT members so it is very unlikely there will be any spaces remaining after 10am until noon.
Unfortunately several sections of the normal parking area are under water and therefore not usable at present.
Apologies for any inconvenience this might cause.
Regards
