Wind contingencies at the Villa & Hut Sandy Point Half

Unfortunately, because of the gale force winds at yesterday’s Villa & Hut Sandy Point Half, there were some difficulties and several contingencies had to be implemented. We are sorry if any runners and walkers were inconvenienced by this.

With such severe gusts, no kilometre markings were erected on the course because of safety reasons. Had the kilometre markings been put up, the wind would have blown them down, creating a hazard for participants.

Furthermore, the wind was so strong that the recyclable cups full of water were being blown off the tables at the drink stations situated on the course. The volunteers and employees at these drink stations tried their hardest to cope with the conditions, however, with winds so powerful, they faced major challenges.

Nevertheless, all those at the Villa & Hut Sandy Point Half hope that you enjoyed the event despite the wild winds.
