Some of our most frequent inquiries are regarding transfers, updates, and deferrals. Please note that due to our production schedule the deadline for these requests is September 1st. The option to switch races will be available until September 1st as long as the desired race has not already reached capacity. If the desired race has reached capacity, the option to switch races will no longer be available. You may confirm that you are signed up to run by searching the list of confirmed entrants.
Please be advised that if the answer to your question is already posted on the website, you might not necessarily receive a reply. We are currently short-staffed and unable to answer all inquiries.
CANCELLATION POLICY
The Mount Desert Island Marathon is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Entry fees, including optional add-ons, and/or charity donations, are non-refundable. No exceptions. (A limited number of deferrals may be available, see FAQ page for more information.) This no-refund policy is clearly posted and must be agreed to by all entrants at the time of registration. This policy applies to all entrants and is in effect whether the entrant’s plans change, the entrant becomes injured, or if the entrant has an unexpected family emergency / business emergency / medical emergency / or if the entrant is unable to participate for any other reason not already listed above. Once the entrant has paid the entry fee they will not receive a refund if they cannot participate, or if the event is canceled because of weather, natural disaster, public health crisis, unforeseen circumstances, or for any other reason not already listed above. (Income generated from registration is almost entirely expended prior to race day.) Bib numbers, race materials, and/or other incentive items will not be mailed. The race committee reserves the right to accept or reject any entries.
