Refund & Deferral Policy

2027 RACE WEEKEND — SEPTEMBER 17–19. Saturday, Sept 18: the 5K, the new 10K and the free Kids Fun Dash. Sunday, Sept 19: the Half Marathon and 3-Amigos Relay, 7:30 AM from Romero’s Park in Agua Fría. Every race finishes at Reunity Resources Farm, home of the Race Weekend Expo and packet pickup, Friday 10 AM–6 PM and Saturday 10 AM–5 PM. 2027 registration opens soon. See the race on RunSignup

The short version

  • All race entries are non-refundable. No exceptions, no partial refunds — this applies to every distance and to all add-ons.
  • Deferrals: the 2027 deferral window and deadline will be posted here before race weekend. A deferral rolls your entry to the next year’s race, same distance.
  • Bib transfers: the 2027 transfer deadline will be posted here too. The new runner must re-register under their own name with their own emergency info — never run under someone else’s bib.
  • For reference: in 2026 both deferrals and transfers closed on September 10.

Questions about your entry?

For deferrals, transfers or anything else about your entry, email us at info@santafehalfmarathon.com and we’ll sort it out.

Why there is a cutoff

By the cutoff we’ve already ordered your race shirt, chip-timed bib, and your custom made finisher medal — the medal every finisher earns at the line. (Maasai artisans make both the finisher medal and the age-group medallions.) Once those orders are placed, we can’t reassign or roll entries forward.

If we have to change the event

Racing at 7,000 feet means weather gets a vote. If conditions ever force us to modify, delay, or cancel for safety, we’ll email every registered runner immediately and post updates on this site and our social channels. Event changes made for safety do not alter the refund policy above.
