Athletes have until 12 February 2017 (TBC) to achieve the qualifying standard.

There is limited discretion in the selection process with respect to qualifying times and distances.

Coaching:

It is strongly advised that team members have their own coaches. Training programs and liaison with athlete’s coaches will be taken into consideration for team selection.
