Mystery race number in the post...


Someone sent on a photo of the race number /bib that they received from MyRunResults during the week. The name and address on the envelope was written by hand as opposed to a printed label and there is no indication whatsoever as to what race the bib is for.

I've blanked out the persons details as they're not relevant but the ID for the race is 6707. Looking the MyRunResults website, it's not obvious which race this is.

I checked the QR Code and it goes to some strange website. The postmark is from Drogheda so it looks the same as other MyRunResults postmarks.

The problem is that some people enter numerous races and there can be a regular stream of race bib being delivered... some for races in the next week and some for weeks in advance. Without the race name on the envelope or bib, they have no idea of knowing what race the bib is for.
