We understand that plans change and life happens. Given this, please be aware of our refund policy. A race entry belongs to the individual whose name is on the race registration. We cannot transfer a race entry to another runner. No one is allowed to run using someone else’s race bib number. If the race director is notified of a need to withdraw:

• More than 2 months before from race day:  100% refund granted
• Between 1 and 2 months before from race day:  50% refund granted
• Less than 1 month before race day:  no refunds granted
•  

(This policy includes refunds for any additional race items ordered, including optional apparel, i.e. t-shirts, hoodies, hats, etc.)

If you would like to transfer your race registration to the virtual race option, this is allowable, if notice is given more than one month prior to race day. No refunds are given for the difference in price. Requests to transfer to the virtual race outside this timeframe may be honored, but no race shirt will be included in the entry unless it had been pre-purchased with the original registration. Transfers requested outside this timeframe will incur a transfer fee.

If you registered for a race but would like to participate in a shorter distance event instead (e.g., 10K to 5K), you must contact the race director 1 week prior to race day, and we will initiate the transfer process for you. Less than 1 week notice may result in an additional fee. We can transfer your entry to the shorter distance, but you will not receive a refund for the difference in price. If you are transferring to a more expensive event (e.g., 5K to 10K) you will need to pay the difference in price.

Race Deferral

Athletes who cannot participate in the event due to an injury or medical issue may transfer an entry to the following year if the race director is notified at least seven (7) days prior to race day AND a note from a physician is received. Note that if there is a difference in race entry fees, or extra costs (t-shirts, etc.) the athlete will pay the difference. In the event of a transfer to the following year, it is the responsibility of the athlete to confirm with the race director at least one month prior to race day.

Race Swag

If you cannot participate, you are welcome to come to packet pick-up to receive your bib, packet and other items you purchased or that come with your registration. Please note that all race materials, including purchased items, will become the property of Lay It Out Events after the close of race day. We cannot store race materials, so please pick up all items before or on race day!

Cancellation

In the event that Lay It Out Events cancels the race, we will refund all race entry fees, not including any processing fees charged by our race registration platform, Active Network.

Email and Race Communications:

By registering for one of Lay It Out Events (LIOE) Races, you agree to allow LIOE to communicate with you about the race via email. Some messages may include promotions, opportunities, race series information or information about our other events and races as well. You will always have the opportunity to “opt out” of further communications from us and we will never sell or give your email address away!
