The race committee has two sanctions for infractions of rules:

bullet Disqualification -- runner will not appear as an official finisher in the race results
bullet Future entry denied -- application for runner for a future Knee Knacker Race will be returned

Infractions resulting in disqualifications are:

bulletShortcutting of the course
bulletMissing a checkpoint
bulletGetting in a moving vehicle
bulletFailing to remain at a checkpoint for medical evaluation on request of checkpoint personnel
bulletRunning with a dog, pole, or any other aids
bulletFailing to withdraw on request of race officials
bulletImpeding another runner

Infractions resulting in denial of future entry are:

bulletRunning as a bandit or pacing and/or crewing for a bandit runner
bulletHaving crews drive cars to areas designated as off limits
bulletLittering
bulletFailing to withdraw from the race for missed cutoff times
bulletFailing to respect private property
bulletMistreating aid station personnel, other volunteers or other runners
bulletFor safety and liability reasons, any attempt at doing a "Knee Knacker double" during race weekend is not allowed. This means running from Deep Cove to Horseshoe Bay starting the night before race morning and then expecting to run as an official participant of the race. If this is attempted, you will be asked to surrender your race number. If you still decide to run during the race, you will be considered a bandit (see first point in this section).

The race committee reserves the right to impose sanctions for behaviour not specifically mentioned here.
