Runners are entitled to a full refund within the first 7 days of purchase. After this period, there are no refunds
-
Can I transfer my place to a friend?
Yes, for a fee of £10. It is against race rules to swap your bib number with any other runner outside of our official transfer service. Each bib number has unique emergency contact and health details attached digitally, so swaps lead to medical teams working off incorrect information on the day which can have serious consequences – including invalidating insurance. Systems are in place to monitor this and those found to be swapping numbers will be banned from all Run Cheltenham events.
-
What will I receive before the race?
Physical race packs containing your running number with timing chip attached will be posted out in the weeks leading up to the event. Participants will also receive a digital event guide with final instructions during August.
-
Can I defer my entry to a later event?
Yes, for an admin fee of £10. You can only be deferred once per entry.
