WEATHER & CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY

In the event of inclement weather, the start time of this event may be delayed by up to 1 hour. Past this time, the even course may be shortened or altered to protect the participants. All Rad Race Company events proceed rain, shine, snow, or cold.  For that reason, we have a strict no-refund policy. 

If conditions turn unsafe, the event may be cancelled. Event changes and cancellations are at the discretion of the Race Director. 

We always strive to produce a full and safe sporting event, but sometimes the weather conditions can affect those plans. 

Considerable amount goes into planning a sporting event and we do so with the best intentions. Unfortunately, no one can control the weather and race directors are not the exceptions.

Our goal is to always produce a full event as scheduled and only modify these plans due to safety concerns some of which can be caused by weather conditions.

If you are unable to participate in the event, upon request we can switch you to Virtual and you can still receive your packet, shirt, and medal, and you simply run the race on your own time on your own course. *See our virtual race information for complete details.

Thank you for your understanding of these policies and we appreciate your participation.
