Event Postponed

Jun 26, 2021

Due to the COVID-19 situation in Sydney and the recently announced lockdowns across the Sydney area Raffertys Coastal Run will not be able to take place as planned next weekend, it has been postponed. At this point in time the decision has been made to postpone the event until Saturday the 7th of August, 2021. We sincerely hope that restrictions in Sydney and NSW have eased by then and we are able to run the event as planned for our passionate participants.

All registered runners will automatically have their entry rolled over to the new event date. Please hold onto your race bib if you have received it in the mail so you can wear it with pride on the 7th of August.

We understand that the new date means that some runners won’t be able to attend. If that is you then the following options are available to you;

  • Transfer 100% of your entry fee to another Max Adventure event in 2021 or 2022. If you are wanting to transfer your entry you will need to let us know by Sunday 25th July via email to [email protected]. You do not need to decide which event you are transferring to by that date but to claim this transfer offer you will need to notify us so we can withdraw you from Raffertys Coastal Run for 2021.
  • A refund of your entry fee, plus any pre-purchased merchandise if desired, minus the nominated admin fee of $30. To claim a refund please email [email protected]. Refunds will be available until Sunday 25th July, two weeks out from the new event date.

We thank you for your understanding and support in this difficult time. Our small customer service team is sure to be busy over the next week so apologies in advance if there are slight delays in replying or processing your requests.

We are as passionate about putting on our events as you are in participating in them. We urge everyone to follow the lockdown restrictions, wear a mask and practice good physical distancing so we can all get out on the trails doing what we love again in the near future!
