Surrey Phil Dec 2017 10:04pm, 20 Dec 2017 2,194 posts	0 Surrey Phil I came across a couple of unnecessary duplicated races which I assumed to be people creating them as part of the recent advent calendar task, solely to get extra entries in the draw.

Deck the Halls Daisy Dec 2017 6:59pm, 21 Dec 2017 20,867 posts	0 Deck the Halls Daisy How do I delete duplicates of races? I checked my neck of the woods and there are a couple. These seem to be simple duplicates rather than relocated ones. I was the culprit in one instance, though I was sure the race hadn't already been listed when I added it.
