How do I confirm that I am registered?
Your confirmation email shows your confirmation number and registered distance. You can also view your registration in your Race Roster participant dashboard.
Why is my registration not showing in my dashboard?
Sign in using the email address associated with your registration. If you still cannot find it, email customersupport@berkeleyhalfmarathon.com with your full name, registration email address, confirmation number if available, and registered distance.
How do I update my registration information?
Open your Race Roster participant dashboard and select the option to edit your registration. Available fields may include contact information, shirt size, estimated finish time, and other participant details.
Can I change my race distance?
Yes. Distance changes can be completed through your Race Roster participant dashboard through 11:59 PM Pacific Time on October 15, 2027, subject to availability.
A $15 transfer fee applies. If you move to a more expensive distance, you must also pay the difference between your original registration and the current price of the new distance. If you move to a less expensive distance, the difference in price will not be refunded.
Can I transfer my registration to another person?
Yes. You can initiate a person-to-person transfer through your Race Roster dashboard through 11:59 PM Pacific Time on October 15, 2027.

Which distances qualify?
The Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K qualify at both The San Francisco Marathon and the Berkeley Half Marathon. You may complete any qualifying distance at each event.
Do I need to submit proof or register separately for the Challenge?
No. Eligibility is matched automatically. You do not need to submit results, complete a separate form, or contact customer support.
Eligible runners will receive an SF/Berkeley Challenge medal in November.
Are group discounts available?
Yes. Groups of 10 or more runners receive a 20% registration discount for the Half Marathon, 10K, or 5K.
Groups with 20 or more registrations using their group code may request a Finish Line Festival tent, subject to availability and confirmation.
How does my group get started?
Before registering, the group organizer should email customersupport@berkeleyhalfmarathon.com with the group or organization name, estimated number of runners, expected race distances, organizer’s name and email address, and expected registration timeline.
The Berkeley Half Marathon team will provide the group’s registration instructions. Creating or joining a Race Roster team does not automatically apply the group discount.
When will packet pickup and bib information be available?
Packet-pickup dates, locations, bib instructions, transportation information, and other race-week logistics will be emailed to registered runners closer to the event.
Please rely on the 2027 runner communications rather than information from previous race years.
