The ‘all you need to know’ race info for the 2018 Old Mutual Two Oceans Marathon.
ANTI-LITTER CAMPAIGN
The event’s official policy is
that no littering will be tolerated
anywhere on the route, including
at refreshment stations, the
start and the finish. Littering is
defined as the act of disposing
of waste items anywhere except
in a container provided for that purpose. The event
waste items include plastic water sachets and corners,
paper cups, bottles, wrappers and containers whether
supplied by the organisers or brought to the race by the
participants.
Littering is considered intentional when there is no litter
receptacle in the immediate vicinity of where such items
are disposed of. Participants guilty of intentional littering
may be subject to a fine, disqualification or barring
from future Two Oceans Marathon events. Participants
identified by race officials as littering will be warned by
showing a yellow card. A second yellow card may result
in a red card (disqualification) during or after the event.
ADVERTISING
Only the following advertising or branding may be
displayed on a club competitor’s upper body attire (ASA
rule 143):
• Sponsor Old Mutual’s name on the race number.
• Small logo and/or name of the clothing manufacturer.
• Name of the club sponsor may appear either as part
of the name or independent of the club name. Club
sponsor identification may appear once only.
