There will be 2000 spots up for grabs on 30 January 2010, and will only be available through the Mr Price stores. Please note that this is the ONLY Avenue that will be available if you missed out on the previous entry deadlines. Entries will be done on a first come first serve basis, and no correspondence will be entered into. Entries open at 09H00.
Management at Mr Price have agreed to assist the CMA for this purpose as they are one of the countries largest, and most successful retail organisations, with +- 1000 stores nationwide, which therefore allows for easy accessibility for all that still wish to enter the 2010 race. Mr Price is also a Comrades sponsor.
What to do on the 30 January 2010 at Mr Price:
Make your way to a Mr Price store. Should there still be spots available, you will be able to hand in and pay for your entry at this point.
The entry system is "live" and therefore once 2000 entries have been received, the system will automatically shut down, and entries will then be closed. In no way will the system be able to be overridden, by a store Manager, or staff member, or any individual within the Mr Price Group, as the CMA has full control over the system.
We would like to request that anyone that misses out on entering Comrades 2010, refrain from abusing, shouting or insulting staff at the Mr Price stores, as they cannot change the fact that entries close.
The CMA would like to thank Mr Price for their assistance in advance, which is greatly appreciated.
