I gathered as much, hence my explanation. As athletes we are racing in age groups at specific times throughout the morning and all given and individual QR Code and will be tested at registration, transition check-in, prior to race and will be requested to show our QR Code for scanning. From an email received today:
Please remember due to COVID-19 Rules and Regulations, no spectators are allowed at the event.
A weblink will be sent to you via SMS to download the COVID-19 Screening link. The link will be open from Friday, 4th June at 07h00. Please make sure you complete the link and have your QR code readily available when arriving at Registration. This link will be valid for 72 hours, thereafter you will have to complete the COVID-19 form again to obtain a new QR code.
Please remember, should you fail the Screening, you will have to complete a Rapid COVID-19 test. This will be available at R450 per test (athletes’ cost).
So are basically taking all precautions possible I think to mitigate Covid being within the athletes racing which has been implemented at other races around the world so far. Am not saying it is fool proof, but at least the new way of doing things hopefully keeps us able to race.
