Series Event Registration
This page is a guide for Event Organisers when registering a series of events.
The full regulations governing events and their registration can be found in the National Constitution & Bylaws.
SERIES EVENTS
These are classified by the British Walking Federation as events that take place from one or more venues over a period of days, weeks or months. A series must :
- Consist of at least 4 events
- Charge the same entry fee for each event.
- Must offer a distance of between 10 & 15 km. In addition it may also offer a longer distance of between 16 & 24km and/or a shorter distance of 5km.
World Walking Day - The IVV celebrates World Walking Day each year on the 8th May. Organisers can register any events that takes place between 5th & 11th May 2011 as World Walking Day events. A special stamp is given for these events.
