Please note that if you do have an ongoing prescription for any of these medications, you should continue to take your usual dose but you must include this information in the ‘medical details’ section of your entry form and/or inform us about it in advance via email, and you must be able to show us an in-date prescription packet if requested. If we become aware that you are doing so without a prescription and/or without our knowledge, you WILL be disqualified. You must not use any of these drugs as a race-day painkiller. The casual race-day use of ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is forbidden. If you are sceptical about this information, please google ‘NSAIDs and ultrarunning’ and read about the risks yourself. Our medical team are highly experienced and highly competent ultra race medics with many years of experience, they know what they’re talking about and we fully support them on this rule. NSAIDs are known to put stress on the kidneys and occasionally this can cause life-threatening problems for ultrarunners.
This rule has been brought in at the insistence of our medical team.
