Cancellation / Transfer Policy
As a small events company, our community is important to us. We've tried to make our policies as fair as possible, to balance the health of our operation with flexibility for you the runners.
There are no waitlists. Once we are sold out, that's it. Please consider joining us as a volunteer to attain early entry into the following edition of SQ50.
Bibs are not transferrable to another runner under any circumstances.
Entries are not deferrable to a future race.
Up to May 1, anyone dropping out will receive a 50% refund of entry fees.
Up to July 31, you can drop down to a shorter distance event. No credit or refund is available if dropping down in distance. We cannot move anyone up to a longer distance event.
Full refunds can ONLY be processed for anyone who selects the optional refund insurance during registration.
For events that are cancelled for reasons beyond our control, including acts of nature, war, strikes, access issues or other unforeseeable circumstances, or similar cause beyond the control of the organizers, Coast Mountain Trail Running carries event cancellation insurance to be able to offer runners full refunds in such an unlikely event. Unfortunately, as we've discovered, pandemics are not covered by either this event cancellation insurance policy, or the optional participant coverage (available during registration). See full details.
Thank you for your understanding and adherence to our race policies. We look forward to seeing you on race day!
The Squamish 50 team.
