Picked up my number earlier, just looked at it now. On the actual number it says 56km. I definitely didn't enter the 56km. What does everyone elses numbers say? On the envelope it just gives my start time as 06h30 and on the sms the same.

You are doing the 56km route twice.

 

Did they also have the number printing thing at collection?

LOL! 

No they didn't, the normal already printed in envelope. I was lucky with that a R4S, I went to collect on the morning before start and there was no issues with the printer jamming. It was quick and easy. Wish I could do that at all races except the big ones(argus, 947) obviously.

Same here, number also states 56km, but in batch CL. Not too worried though, have a look at the start groups at https://www.asgevents.co.za/bergeendale/. The groups, distance and start times are listed, my group is definitely 107km

I asked ASG the same question

This was their reply

 

Race numbers for pre-paid online entries will be available to collect on the morning before the start of the race.
