Refund and Withdrawal Policy for the No Business 100

At the No Business 100, we strive to create a runner-first experience while balancing the logistical challenges of hosting a premier trail endurance race. To this end, we have updated our Refund and Withdrawal Policy to be more transparent and fair for all participants.

 

Key Policy Changes:

1. No Deferrals: We will no longer offer deferrals to future events.
2. Tiered Refunds: Refunds will be provided based on the timing of your withdrawal, as outlined below.
3. Waitlist Contingency: Refunds are contingent upon another runner taking your spot via the RunSignup conditional waitlist.
4. Registration Protection Insurance: While we do not offer 100% refunds, we do make RunSignup’s Registration Protection Insurance available at checkout. Registration Protection Insurance provides reimbursement for non-refundable registration fees if you are unable to participate due to covered reasons such as injury, illness, or unforeseen travel issues. For more details, please review the policy during registration and visit the RunSignup Registration Protection page for details.

 

Tiered Refund Schedule

Refund amounts will depend on the timing of your withdrawal:

• Before April 1st (206 days or more before the race): 80% refund of your registration fee.
• Before September 1st (54 to 205 days before the race): 50% refund of your registration fee.
• September 1st to Race Day (less than 54 days before the race): 25% refund of your registration fee.

*Refunds apply only to the registration fee and exclude processing fees.

 

Conditions for Refunds

• Refunds are not automatic and are contingent upon another runner successfully registering from the conditional waitlist to fill your spot.
• Once your spot has been filled, you will be notified, and the refund will be processed.
• If your spot is not filled by the waitlist, no refund will be issued regardless of withdrawal timing.
• The refund amount is contingent on when the other runner fills your spot, not when you initiate the refund request.

 

How to Withdraw

1. Log into your RunSignup account.
2. Navigate to your registration for the No Business 100.
3. Select the withdrawal option and confirm your request.
4. Your spot will then be offered to the next runner on the waitlist.

 

Why This Policy?

This policy allows us to:

• Provide more flexibility for runners who can no longer participate.
• Ensure fairness by filling event slots and minimizing the impact on other participants.
• Maintain the quality and experience of the No Business 100 for all involved.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with this updated policy. If you have any questions, please contact us at nobusiness100trailultra@gmail.com.

 

Transfers

There are no transfers to other runners. No exceptions.

• Race numbers and entries cannot be transferred to another year or person.
• In the event a race has to be cancelled due to extreme weather, fire, flood, or some other unforeseeable event such as a global pandemic, we cannot offer refunds, though Ultranaut Running LLC will make a conscious effort to issue credits based on race funds not used.

 

Hardship Deferrals

In the event of an unforeseen hardship such as military deployment, pregnancy, death in the family, etc you are welcome to defer your entry to the next calendar year race (or even two year out if you are trying to run for the double buckle). You must contact us directly at nobusiness100trailultra@gmail.com to discuss this option.

Note: Running injuries, weddings, vacations, graduations, to name a few are not considered hardships eligible for deferrals. Contact us if you have any questions.

 

Weather & Acts of God Related Refunds/Credits

In the event a race is cancelled due to extreme weather, fire, pandemic, terrorist threat/activity, or some other unforeseeable event, we cannot offer refunds. We will do everything we can to reschedule the event and defer all participants registered at the time of the postponement to the rescheduled date or offer a credit.

ANY race can be cancelled, postponed, or ended early by the Race Director, emergency medical personnel, or any of our associated land manager(s). Those decisions will be made based on an in depth risk management assessment conducted by the race director, emergency medical personnel, and/or land manager(s), and with the overall safety of all involved (runners, spectators, volunteers, etc), and land resource management, in mind. We understand these difficult decisions may not be the most popular with all involved, but the decision will be made with the proper risk management considerations in mind. Please understand that this is a risk we all assume in hosting, and/or participating in, these types of events.

---

With these policies we are trying to be as accommodating as possible. This is more than generous as we incur most costs early on in the planning process, and these policies represent our ability to reasonably provide options to runners who cannot attend, while keeping our entry fees low and quality high. Our policies are non-negotiable and go beyond what most other events in the industry are offering. Those who behave in any disrespectful, threatening, dishonest, or unacceptable behavior with regards to our refund and credit policies will be banned from all future Ultranaut Running events.

 

Thank you for your cooperation.
