GOOD TO KNOW

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question? Start here.

Is my registration refundable?

Registration for the FRESH 15 is final and non-refundable. Because race revenue directly supports our nonprofit partners and race expenses are incurred in advance, refunds cannot be provided for any circumstance, including schedule changes, injury, or weather.

Can I transfer my registration to someone else?

No. Bib transfers are not permitted. This policy helps protect participants from fraudulent transactions and ensures every runner arrives with a valid registration.

Can I defer my registration to next year?

No. Registrations cannot be deferred or carried over to a future year. Participants must register separately for each year's event.

Can I downgrade from the 15K to the 5K?

Absolutely! If you decide the 5K is a better fit, you can change your registration through your RunSignup account:

  1. Log in to your RunSignup account.
  2. Select Transfer Event in the top-right corner.
  3. Click Start Transfer in the middle of the screen.
  4. Select the 5K.

Prefer a little help? Visit the Race Support table on race day, and our team can help you make the switch.

The best part? You'll still keep your 15K swag! No judgment! We're just glad you're running with us!

What happens if severe weather affects the race?

Participant safety is our priority. Race officials will monitor weather conditions and communicate any necessary changes to the event. Registration fees remain non-refundable.

Does the FRESH 15 support local charities?

Absolutely! The FRESH 15 supports nonprofit organizations that provide strength, stability, and safety for families. One hundred percent of runner revenue goes directly to nonprofit partners. Together, participants have helped raise more than $1 million to support families and communities.
