Great Run entry form asking for gender/non-binary status

As a female runner, I think this might actually be quite positive. I wouldn't want to come second or later in my age/sex category to anyone born male.
Still a bit irritated that people don't just compete in their own sex category but less than I'd be to lose out on a placing, I guess.

Image fail?

If it doesn't display, the wording is
"If you identify as non-binary and wish to be included in the non-binary gender category for this event please tick this box"

Do you mean they are separating by sex then by fluffy unicorn status? So female category split into women, TM & NB?

I like that there is a non-binary category. That’s great.
Still doesn’t stop someone saying they identify as a woman and winning the women’s race though.

The key thing is how they are defining the women’s category. Look for that.

Your post doesn't make it clear which category a male who "identified as a female" would be placed in?

mcduffy · 01/03/2020 16:25

I'm not sure! I can email them to ask.
