DID YOUR MEDICAL DETAILS CHANGE? OMTOM participants are required to complete a medical questionnaire upon entering, allowing our medical team to identify any runners at risk and privately communicating with them regarding the most appropriate medical action plan. The reality is that medical conditions and physical fitness change over time. If any aspect of your health has changed, if you have been diagnosed with a new condition, if you've changed medication or recently been ill, please update your online medical profile again. This allows us to provide you with the best possible medical advice in the build-up to Race Day… click here for more info |
