Following consultation with England Athletics, our headphones policy is detailed below:

If any part of the route is on roads open to traffic, headphones, or similar devices, (other than open-ear bone conduction headphones, or those medically prescribed) are strictly prohibited.

Failure to comply will result in disqualification, which may occur post-race, if a photograph clearly shows the breach of the above policy.

If no part of the course is on roads open to traffic, headphones of any kind may be used.

Sublime Racing recommends the use of Aftershokz open-ear bone conduction headphones because you can wear them in any Sublime race and they allow you to hear the instructions from marshals, other competitors and vehicular traffic.
