Code of Conduct/Participation’s/Terms/Fundraising

All people registered with 999km Thailand Charity Run 2014 are called participants or runners.

All staff are called run staff and a staff admin/run supervisor is called run management.

Event day is any day the participant has said they will run.

The run is scheduled to take place between 17 FEB – 19 March 2014

 

Category 2 Thailand Stage Run is for people or groups local to the regions on route intending to take part in the Thailand Run who can rely on family and friends to give transport, food and accommodation.

Participants will make their own way to the starting point of the chosen run stage. Category 2 Thailand Run participants will not be provided with accommodation, food etc

Category 2 Thailand Stage Run runners to agree to participating in named stages alongside the category 1 runners.

Participants agree to make commitments to fundraising of $100 (3000 baht) per day of participation.

Category 2 Thailand Stage Run carries a non returnable fee of $100 payable with application.

Category 2 runners may share with Category 1 Thailand Runners but will not have any priority over them for sponsored accommodation and sustenance.

The run organizers,whilst not being responsible for food and drink for Category 2 Thailand Stage Runners, will endeavor to ensure without obligation that refreshments are available during the running time.

Please note that Category 2 Thailand Stage Runners must be at least 18 years of age. We suggest if a group of below age candidates wish to follow the run then they do so as spectators perhaps having a separate fundraising under category 3.

The Thailand Run is non competitive, and so not a race; it is a friendship and adventure run for all participants joining together to gather funds for charities in Thailand while at the same time having fun.  It will be better for all if we run as a team, encouraging, assisting and supporting each other as far as is possible taking into account that each person runs at his own pace.
