Permanent numbers will be awarded to runners completing their third race. These need not have been completed consecutively. A permanent number will not confer any privileges on the holder thereof, but will have the effect of recording the holder in the annals of the race.
Only runners in possession of an invitation will be entitled to enter a particular race. A permanent number will not automatically qualify the holder to run in future races.
A permanent number holder will run with a Blue 'Snowflake' number.
