COVID-19 POLICY
*We recognize the continued uncertainty surrounding public events, and White Mountain Half Marathon race organizers are still closely monitoring all developments related to COVID-19 in partnership with local health authorities. At this point in time, we are still planning to host the event as scheduled on October 17, 2020. However, given the rapidly changing environment around the virus, the status of our event is subject to change. In as such, the race does not offer refunds, but due to any potential cancellations, we do have a Worry Free Registration Policy:
In response to the current uncertainty surrounding the staging of large community events because of COVID-19 public health crises, we are instituting a “worry free” registration policy for 2020 WMHM registrations. If the 2020 WMHM is unable to be conducted for any reason related to the COVD-19 public health crisis, all 2020 WMHM registrants will receive a one-time voucher that will allow them to register for free for any one future WMHM through 2023.
Details:
· If 2020 WMHM is unable to be conducted in any form, all registrants will receive a voucher that they will be able to redeem for a free entry into one future WMHM through the year 2023
· The event’s “no refunds/no transfers” policy will still be in effect, as we are still unable to offer any refunds or transfer your registration for any reason
· The voucher will be assigned to the registered participant and can only be redeemed by that participant, it cannot be transferred to another person
· Registrants who deferred their 2019 WMHM registration and HAVE REGISTERED for the 2020 WMHM will receive the voucher. If you do not redeem your 2020 Deferral in 2020 for whatever reason, you will not receive a voucher. Vouchers are only for REGISTERED participants of the 2020 event.
· All event add-ons (e.g. extra event swag) that a registrant has attached to their registration will be included in your voucher and will be added to your registration when you redeem your voucher in the future WMHM event
· If the 2020 WMHM is conducted, no vouchers will be offered.
