Conquer24 is so much more than just a race, it's a journey that brings our community together to support one another in reaching our goals. Whether you’re aiming for 1 lap or pushing for 24, we’re all in this together! 💪✨

We have a favour to ask: 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬! Time is running out to enter, and orders for medals and T-shirts need to be placed by the end of the week. 🚨

After this Friday, T-shirts will not be included with entries due to lead times and costs for smaller orders, which just aren't viable for us. So if you want to guarantee your tee, make sure to get your order in before the Friday deadline!

Thank you for being part of our incredible community—we can’t wait to conquer together! 🏅❤️

🌟 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲! 🌟

Hello everyone! We’ve made some changes to our refund policy that are designed to benefit you! Don’t panic—these updates are in your favour.

𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐰:
- Our previous terms allowed refunds only up to 14 days after booking unless you opted for refundable booking cover through Eventrac.
- Now, you can enjoy a 𝟏𝟎𝟎% 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝 up to 𝟗𝟎 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝟕𝟓% up to 𝟔𝟎 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬, and 𝟓𝟎% up to 𝟑𝟎 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 prior.
- After 30 days, we still offer 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐥 up until the day before the event!

Why the staggered refund policy? It allows you the participant maximum coverage while helping us manage the significant costs we incur closer to the event. As we approach the date, the refund options become more limited.

But wait, there’s more! You can 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 free of charge up until the day before the event! Plus, if you need to transfer your entry to someone else, you can do that through your booking account up to 𝟕 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫—after that, just reach out to us and we’ll handle it manually.

And for total peace of mind you can take our 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 which ensures a full refund anytime prior to the event (subject to the policy terms and conditions)

We hope these changes reflect our commitment to providing the best possible coverage for our participants while also considering the event’s substantial expenses.

Kind regards,
The Conquer24 Team 💪🏰✨

🌟 𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭: 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬’ 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐉𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐲 🌟

''As some of you may know, I am quite fond of running! An understatement maybe. A lot of you won’t know why I run. It’s not because I’m trying to emulate Forest Gump, become an Olympic athlete, run faster than the next person – It’s because it helps!

Helps with what? Fitness, weight loss…. Yes, they are side benefits, but the reality is, I run for my own mental health.

Many years ago, I was a sprinter (at school) and was pretty good. I never thought I would get into longer distances, but in my late 30’s, I did start running (badly) up to around 10k distances. Never competitive and was generally to help with overall fitness, but then stopped shortly afterwards.

It was only in the Summer of 2022 at 47 years old that I decided to give myself a challenge and entered the Cardiff Half Marathon in October 2022, raising money for Dogs Trust. I had a blast! The atmosphere was incredible, and I cannot recommend that event enough to any runner out there that wants to run a half marathon. What it did for me was spark something. Something so special that I have never looked back.

The last couple of years for me have been particularly challenging, with one thing and another. What I realised is, that even the strongest people trip and fall sometimes. Often for reasons out of our control, but the outcome is always that you hit the floor. Something I have firsthand knowledge of. This neatly brings me to the point of this story.

All the miles ran in training. Races and events over the last year or so, and recently running my first Ultra Marathon in early August 2024, has given me a drive to do something a little crazy!

In June 2025, I will be entering into a 24-Hour running challenge, Conquer24 at Powderham Castle. Starting at 12pm on Saturday 7th June, I will head out on my first 8k loop, and then many more afterward over a 24-hour period. My first target distance is 100k (62 miles), but with a higher aim of hitting the 100-mile mark should my body allow it.

There will be other runners that are part of a team, but I will be taking it on as a solo runner.

This will be in aid of raising money for a fantastic charity ManDown Cornwall that provides informal peer-support talking groups all over Cornwall for men with mental health concerns.
https://www.mandown-cornwall.co.uk/

This is not an affiliated charity to the run itself, but an individually chosen one. I will be paying the full entry fee to the run so all donations will go to the charity.

Obviously, I will be getting a lot out of this, because all of the training and running on the day will be helping with my own metal health, but there are lots of guys out there that are not as fortunate as I am and need that extra support.

So, if you are able to support me in this challenge I’d be extremely grateful.
