We understand that COVID-19 has turned your world upside down as it has ours. Normally we would be seeing you at various Fall Marathon race expos but clearly that is not happening. We also know that most of you would be purchasing your Spring Marathon / Half Marathon before the end of the year.

We want to provide our runners a way to reduce your risk, yet still make plans to participate in our event. We fully plan on having the event next May 1st and 2nd of 2021 but realize you may be hesitant to register early. Today, we are introducing the Runner Protection Program. It is a first of its kind race refund policy to help you during the registration decision process. Here is how it works.

  1. All runners who register BEFORE October 31st can receive a 100% refund on their race registration if they decide to cancel before our March 1st 2021 deadline.
  2. All runners who register BETWEEN November 1st and December 31st can receive a 50% refund on their race registration if they decide to cancel before our March 1st 2021 deadline.
  3. All runners who register BETWEEN January 1st and February 28th can receive a 30% refund on their race registration if they decide to cancel before our March 1st 2021 deadline.
  4. No Questions Asked.

We want our participants to register at the lowest prices available AND have the peace of mind that they can back out while getting a full / fair refund. It also allows us to plan and purchase accordingly as we approach race weekend.

We hope you will take advantage of the Runner Protection Program. We want to be your Spring 2021 Marathon, Half Marathon, Team Relay, and 5K choice. We are especially excited as we partner with the NFL Draft in Cleveland during Marathon Week. Please direct all questions to Jim Chaney – This email address is being protected from spambots.
