54% of runners want to de-risk their entry! Are you doing that for them?

“54% of your target audience want better cost/financials/entry terms and conditions - i.e. less financial risk to enter a race.”

That standout snippet is exactly why we recommend race organisers spend a few minutes this weekend taking in Sussex Sport Photography’s informative 2022 Participant Survey.?

Sussex Photography's Ant Bliss’ offers?an easy read that combines clear charts and analysis with insights and practical recommendations from someone who has provided sport photography services to over 2,000 events since 2004.

In summary he provides race organisers with an invaluable insight into the post lockdown behaviour of runners and identifies a few simple fixes to current issues.

And if you’ve been wondering where the runners have gone:?

“A staggering 50% of you have had covid, and of that 14% of the entire survey population (or 28% of those who have had covid) - have not recovered.”?

A stand out paragraph for race organisers suggests their prospects want to:

“..enter knowing that their entry fee won't go to waste - they can sell, swap, pass on, encourage, and support the races going ahead and it's completely up to them how to do that. A friend might be able to give them the money for it, or a club might be able to share the entry and someone else on the day will pick it up.”
