The Impact Bib is a newer program, and we understand that participants may have made a mistake in their registration. We encourage all participants to closely consider their registration options to ensure they’re choosing their preferred option.
If you would like to switch into or out of the Impact Bib event so you receive the Under Armour souvenir shirt, you can click here to transfer your registration to a different sub-event.
Please note, all transfers are subject to space availability, and changes may not be able to be made based on sell-outs or short time frame leading into race day.

What is the Impact Bib Program?

By | Registration, Registration | No Comments
The Impact Bib Program gives participants with the choice about whether to receive a race shirt as part of their race day experience. If a participant chooses the Impact Bib option, a donation will be made to one of the featured event charities in lieu of a race shirt. On race day, you will have an Impact Bib sticker on your bib to celebrate your choice!
At Canada Running Series, we’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental impact, and we want to provide our participants with that same ability. By offering the impact bib as a registration option, we allow our participants to be in choice about what they receive as part of their race experience.

Can I defer my entry due to pregnancy or postpartum?

By | Registration | No Comments
Yes! Please review our pregnancy and postpartum deferral policy below.
Who is eligible:
Anyone who is a registered participant, and is or becomes pregnant prior to race day and chooses to not participate in the event due to such circumstances. For clarification, Canada Running Series considers postpartum to be 24 weeks following the birth of a child.
How to request a pregnancy or postpartum deferral:
To obtain a pregnancy or postpartum deferral, the participant must:
Submit a pregnancy or postpartum deferral request in writing to info@canadarunningseries.com any time after registering for the event, but no later than 14 days before race day.
Provide written confirmation of the participant’s pregnancy signed by a physician, registered midwife, or other medical professional.
What does a pregnancy or postpartum deferral provide:
A participant who obtains a pregnancy or postpartum deferral will have their original registration deactivated and will be provided a promo code that can be used to register for one of the next two subsequent events. The promo code must be used to register for the same Canada Running Series Event as the original registration. If it is not used within the following two years, no refund or additional deferral will be provided.
If a participant becomes pregnant again during a pregnancy or postpartum deferral period, they may request a second consecutive pregnancy or postpartum deferral. This would permit them to defer their race entry a second time.
Canada Running Series will allow no more than two consecutive pregnancy deferral requests per event. If the individual is unable to participate after requesting two consecutive deferrals, the participant understands they will not be offered a refund. However, participants are allowed to request additional non-consecutive pregnancy or postpartum deferrals for future pregnancies.
