2024 Race Policies

DEFERRALS

If you are unable to participate due to injury or other circumstances, you may submit a one-time deferral to 2025. All deferrals must be submitted by August 1st. After this time, the deferral window will close. Multi-year deferrals are not allowed (if you were a registered 2022 runner and deferred to 2023, you are unable to defer to 2024). All deferrals are valid for one year only. There is a $25 deferral fee.

BIB TRANSFERS

Bib transfers are not allowed.

REFUNDS

Refunds are not offered.

DISTANCE CHANGE

Changing your distance is allowed, subject to the following:

  • You may upgrade or downgrade your current registration if the distance you are choosing has not reached the maximum participant cap.

  • Participants must pay the difference in fees if upgrading from the 10K to the Half Marathon. The difference in fees will not be refunded if downgrading to the 10K from the Half Marathon.

  • All distance changes must be made prior to race week by Monday, September 4th.

WILDFIRE/SMOKE/EXTREME WEATHER POLICY

We will follow the Montana Department of Environmental Quality measurements to make decisions regarding race day. While Montana does have a fire season, Bozeman is usually fortunate in that air quality is usually not compromised thanks to our higher elevation and distance from active fires. However, if air quality reaches an unhealthy level, race officials reserve the right to cancel the event. In previous years, we have not had to cancel the race.
