Refund & Waitlist Policy

Refunds/Deferrals/Transfer Policy

The Black Mountain Marathon & Mount Mitchell Challenge has a no refund policy. Please note that we do not offer any refunds or discount codes if you cancel your registration for this event, except in the case where the event is sold out and there is a waiting list.

 

ONLY if there is a waitlist, the following refund policy will be implemented.

Aug 1 to Jan 1, 2027 - 75% Refund

Jan 2 to Feb 17 - 50% Refund

Feb 18 to Race Day - No Refund

 

Bibs cannot be transferred as we will have a waitlist and the spot will go to the next participant in line. In the event of a special situation such as military deployment, death in the family, pregnancy, etc. we will offer a full 100% credit towards the 2028 race. Please contact us directly to discuss this option 

 

Cancelation/Virtual

• In the event of inclement weather, this race will become virtual and race packets will be mailed out to runners to the address they registered with. Make sure your UltraSignUp account is up to date with address information.

• In the event the race needs to be canceled there will be no refunds. 

• The cancellation announcement will be made as early as we can. If there is surprise weather we reserve the right to cancel the race up until race morning.  

• If the event needs to be canceled due to a global pandemic, national health emergency, state of emergency in the area or catastrophic event, there will be no refund. We will do our best with a virtual event or socially distanced race. Please understand that we purchase your race items months ahead of time and we will get these items to you if the event is canceled last minute.

• Race cancellation will be emailed out to runners using the email used during registration, posted on the race website (https://blackmountainmarathon.com) as well as posted on our social media platforms. 

• Race updates will be sent to the email address you registered with. Always make sure that your email is correct.
