LIVE EVENT FAQS
Where can I check to see if I'm registered?
You can check online in your account!
Can I update my registration info?
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 you’re switching to isn’t already sold out.
- To do so, simply log into your account.
- Once you’re logged in, you’ll see your upcoming race on the right-hand side of the screen. Click “View registration.”
- You’ll see your current race distance under “Category.” Just click “Edit,” choose the distance you’d like to switch to.
You’ll be prompted to review the rest of your registration, and re-sign the waiver for the new distance. If you’re switching up to the half marathon, then you’ll be required to pay the difference in price. We don’t offer refunds for the difference in price when switching down to the 5k.
