The Rhodes Trail Run is an invitation only event and each year invitations are sent to:
In the case of an individual who is disqualified the invitation is forfeit and will be passed to the waiting list the following year.
- Individuals who completed the event the previous year, or who reached the Mavis Bank cut-off point before the cut-off time limit
- Individuals who received a medical certificate from the race medical official
- Individuals on the waiting list, to fill the available ‘run slots'
In the case of an individual who is disqualified the invitation is forfeit and will be passed to the waiting list the following year.
Provision is made for someone who receives an invitation and who is not able to run to substitute his/her entry to someone of his/her choice, provided the ‘nominee' or ‘substitution' criteria are met.
'Nominee' and 'Substitution' criteria are that a ‘nominee' or a ‘substitute' must have completed a previous Rhodes Trail Run or have been recorded on the Rhodes Trail Run waiting list on or before the day prior to the event date the previous year.
