2021 POSTPONEMENT STATEMENT (27 April 2021)

Dear Loch Ore Beast Racers,

‍It is with heavy hearts we announce the postponement of the Loch Ore Beast Race that was scheduled for the 12th June  2021.

The Loch Ness (28 Aug) and Banchory (25 Sept) events are still going ahead as planned!

All Loch Ore Beast Race ticket holders have been emailed and have been given the opportunity to transfer their ticket to one of the other Beast Race events later this year, have their entry deferred to the Loch Ore Beast Race in 2022 or get a refund (please check your spam folders if you cannot see this email).

Despite restrictions beginning to ease, the latest guidance from the Scottish Government still limits the scale of events during June. With the significant investment required to organise, build and deliver this kind of event we feel it is not viable to host this event at much reduced attendance numbers.  There also remains a real risk of changes or delays to the roadmap in June that could disrupt the event further or even force it to cancel.

We have worked very hard to find an alternative date for 2021 however we have been unable to find a suitable date that is far enough away from the original to be at much less risk of restrictions or does not clash with the delivery of our other two Beast  Races later in the year. We understand this will be a huge disappointment for all of you that have signed up and have been training hard… But please stick with us, we WILL deliver the Loch Ore Beast Race in 2022.

‍Loch Ore Replacement date:
‍We will announce a replacement date for 2022 later on this year. All ticket holders will be emailed directly.
