Event FAQ

 CPTU FAQs

  • You Bib Number Link is on our Homepage

  • The mandatory gear list can be found on the mandatory gear page in the information drop down menu Titled Mandatory Gear.

  • It will be on our home page

  • The Start Line of your event

  • Pacers can start either at the TOP or THE BOTTOM of The Bump Track. They must carry a High VIS Vest just like you.

  • You can not transfer between runners. Transfers closed three weeks before the event. We close transfers before the event to give the GPS Tracker Company enough time to match the trackers to each BIB and barcode. GPS tracker and Timing Companies are two different companies and the data must be correct on both items. This takes time.

  • We do not offer deferrals for any reason other than to those runners who volunteer at our event. If you'd like to Volunteer and receive a deferral send us an email with the subject "Become a Legend" and we will find a job for you. Please give us enough time to find a role for you. Be aware it is a busy time for us.

  • If you'd like to apply for a refund through Refund Protect, jump onto your entry profile, click on your order, at the bottom of the order is a direct link to your Refund Protect Claim Form, carefully ready their terms and conditions before making a claim to make sure you give the correct information. You have 6 weeks until after your event to make a claim.
