Enter Manx Telecom Parish Walk now to get big discount!





If you want to get the maximum discount on the entry fee for this year’s Manx Telecom Parish Walk you need to sign up before midnight this Saturday (January 31). Entry costs just £30, and Manx Telecom customers entering before that date will receive an additional £5 discount. From February 1 the entry fee will be £35 and the Manx Telecom discount ceases.

All entries must be made online at www.parishwalk.com. The 85-mile race is on Saturday June 20, starting as usual from the NSC. Certificates will be awarded to all walkers who complete the full 85-miles in under 24 hours. Sub 18 hour finishers receive a gold certificate, 18 to 21 hour finishers receive silver, and 21 to 24 hour finishers, bronze. The fee is £40 after March 31 until the final entry deadline on May 10.

There is a Corporate Team Award for teams of four walkers who are all from the same Isle of Man based company. Teams may include no more than one walker who has previously completed the full 85 mile distance. The winners will be the team with the highest aggregate distance covered by all four members. In the event of a tie on mileage, the fastest aggregate time for the four walkers will determine the winners. The Overall Team race is for four walkers and cannot include more than two previous finishers who have completed the full 85 miles. The rules for determining the winners are the same as those for the Corporate Team Award. All participants in the team competitions must enter individually and include their team names.


Younger walkers aged 18 to 21 can also compete, with prizes for the first male and first female competitors to cover the 32.5 miles to Peel. There’s also a competition for teams of three in the same age group over the same distance. The winners will be the trio with the fastest combined time, and there are separate prizes for men’s and women’s teams.
