We understand that plans change and life happens. Given this, please be aware of our refund policy. Entry fees cannot be transferred to another athlete. If the race director is notified of a need to withdrawal:

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

If you registered for the half marathon 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 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.

Athletes who cannot participate in the event due to an injury or medical issue only may defer an entry to the following year if the race director is notified 1 week prior 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 deferral to the following year, it is the responsibility of the athlete to contact the race director once online registration opens for the following year. If you cannot participate, you are welcome to come to packet pick-up to receive your bib number, swag bag and items you purchased in advance. You can also pick up your packet and goodies at our Bend office post-race, up to one week after race day. We are located at Lay It Out Events, Inc., 704 NW Georgia Street, Bend, OR 97701.

By registering for Happy Girls Run you acknowledge and agree there are no refunds if the race is cancelled or delayed due to causes beyond Releasees’ control, including but not limited to, acts of God, war, strikes or labor disputes, fires, riots, terrorism, vandalism, accident, government orders, certain severe weather conditions such as severe heat, electrical storm, snowfall, tornadoes, earthquakes, flooding, fog, sever weather conditions where significant damage or altercations to the race occur, or an other force or event.

Thank you for understanding!
