The Plan for Now

We are hopeful to create a 2020 version of the Chuckanut 50k. Our reality to make that happen will depend on how things unfold the next couple of months. If we are given the green light to host a running event before or by July 17, and we are able to secure a date for that production before or by September 12, we will host a 2020 Chuckanut 50k.

Our event cancelation policy as stated on the bottom of our Need To Know page states that

In case of a cancellation decided less than 14 days before the start, or in case of interruption of the race, for whatever the reason, no refund of the registration fee will be made.

The following policy is specific to our current global situation and in consideration of this year’s special circumstance.

  • For those runners that let us know before the February 13 refund date that they would not be able to join us, you already received a refund.

  • For those runners that let us know you would not be able to make it after the February 13 refund date, we have added you back to the registered runner list so that you have access to the following.

  • Registered Runners - if we are able to reschedule you will be first invited to the new race date. If you are unable to make the new date you may request a refund by emailing RD Krissy. We will issue a $50 refund to those requests.

  • Current Waitlist Runners will get first dibs on vacated spots for the new race date.

  • If we have to cancel the event we will issue a $50 refund to those that request it by emailing RD Krissy. Refunds are not automatic, you must email your request. Donating your entry fee will allow us to cover costs and make donations to our organizations.

  • We will make donations to our non-profit partners after we figure out the end finances. We annually donate to The Conservation Alliance. Girls On the Run of Whatcom County, Whatcom County Ham Radio Operators and Recreation Northwest (beer garden host).

  • If for any reason you need the $50 refund now, or sometime before we reschedule or cancel we will issue refunds to those that request starting Monday 3/23. You can email your request at anytime.

  • 2021 Registration will open to all December 4 at 8amPST on UltraSignUp.com with consideration to the CDC, WHO and the current reality at that time.

Thank You!!

for your support, understanding and patience as we made the tough decision to postpone and continue to work through these next steps.
