Our 2022 COVID-19 Promise

We – The O’Keefe Rail Trail Marathon Inc Committee – are optimistic that our O’Keefe Challenge event scheduled for 29 April and 1 May 2022 can take place. However, in the event that we are unable to hold our event due to COVID-19, we wanted to let you know what will happen next.

What would trigger a cancellation or postponement?

Government rules may prevent public events to be held and/or considerable community concerns about participating in a mass fun run event.

When would we make a decision?

On 31 March 2022, we will make a decision if our 29 April and 1 May 2022 date looks to be at risk and/or if our plans for a safe and successful event would be compromised.

After this date, there may be further changes due to COVID in our community and we would continue to discuss and consider these on a weekly basis.

What would happen to registration fees?

If the event is to be postponed, we will inform all and registered participants will have the choice of two options:

OPTION A: Enjoy FREE transfer to the next alternatively scheduled event.

OPTION B: Receive a full refund of their registration fees, minus a $10 administration fee.

We know you are keen to see this event go ahead, so that is why we are comfortable and confident providing a clear plan to enable you and others can make decisions with confidence.
