ESOC:Saughton Park
2024-05-18
The closing date for online entries is 8pm on Friday 17th May
However to be guaranteed a course map for your chosen course you MUST pre-enter by 2pm on Tuesday 14th May.
We will print some extra waterproof maps for late entries and EOD but, once the stock has been used for any course (entry limits will appear in the courses box), RaceSignUp will not let you enter that course. You can enter another course or contact eventadmin@esoc.org.uk and you will be offered a non-waterproof version at the same cost.

First time using this system? To save time when entering ESOC events, please take the time to set up a RACESIGNUP account and create profiles for all the members of the group or family you are entering. You only need to pay once you have entered all the individuals you wish to. More help with entering pairs or groups below.
