Hi Sam — I answer from the Switchback 100 race guide and your registration. Anything I can't answer goes straight to the race team.
-
When is packet pickup?
-
Packet pickup is the Friday before race day, 2–7pm, at the start/finish area in Silverpine, Colorado. Bring photo ID — your bib, timing chip and shirt are in one bag. There's a race-morning window from 4:00 to 5:00am if you're travelling in late.

-
Can I transfer my bib?
-
Yes — transfers are open until 30 days before race day. Your spot moves to another runner through Trailmark: they pay the entry fee, and you're refunded minus a $15 transfer fee. On lottery distances the new runner comes from the waitlist.

What's the refund policy?
-
Withdraw 60 or more days out and you get 75% back — $206 on your 100K entry. 30–59 days out it's 50%. Inside 30 days there's no refund, but you can still transfer your bib.
