π¬ FAQ FRIDAY!
Answering common HKRS questions from families! π
π§οΈ Q: What happens if it rains?
β
HKRS runs rain or shine! If severe weather or unsafe conditions impact race day, your local Coordinator will communicate any changes to registered families at least 2 hours before race time. Your Series may also have a rain date.
π Q: Can my child run in a different division?
β
Sometimes! HKRS has guidelines that allow runners to move up or down in certain circumstances. Families should review the Code of Conduct & Division Guidelines for the specific requirements.
