LIVE EVENT FAQS
What happens if the race is cancelled?
If the live race is cancelled due to COVID-19 or any of its variants (the “Pandemic”) and/or governmental restrictions put in place as a result of or in connection with the Pandemic which make the live race unfeasible or impractical to run, each registrant will have the option of receiving a refund, deferring fees paid to the next yearâs race, or applying the fees to entry into the Old Port Half Marathon Virtual Run. Each registrant must indicate his/her choice within thirty days of being notified of the cancellation by answering the questionnaire sent with the cancellation notice and returning such questionnaire to us. If a registrant does not make a timely election, the registrant will be entered in the virtual run and the live race fees applied to the virtual run entry fee. In no event will the processing fee or fees paid for merchandise orders be refunded due to the race cancellation. Merchandise orders paid for will be shipped to the address associated with the registrantâs race profile by the scheduled date of the cancelled event. In addition we will not be responsible for any costs relating to changed or cancelled travel plans or other related arrangements a registrant may incur due to any such cancellation. A date or venue change is not a cancellation.

Can I move down to the 5k or up to the half marathon?
Yes. You may switch from one race to another as long as the race that youâre switching to isnât already sold out.
- To do so, simply log into your account.
- Once youâre logged in, youâll see your upcoming race on the right-hand side of the screen. Click âView registration.â
- Youâll see your current race distance under âCategory.â Just click âEdit,â choose the distance youâd like to switch to.
Youâll be prompted to review the rest of your registration, and re-sign the waiver for the new distance. If youâre switching up to the half marathon, then youâll be required to pay the difference in price. We donât offer refunds for the difference in price when switching down to the 5k.
