TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Refund Policy

If refund protection was purchased at the time of your registration.

The RPP applies to many of the obstacles that can stop an individual from attending an event. Accidents and injury, severe weather, family emergencies, work or travel conflicts—the RPP has you covered. Standard refund protection requires documentation when a refund is requested. However, Race Roster and our partner Teak makes the refund request process as simple as possible. Users can quickly request a refund and conveniently upload their documentation. 

The RPP covers but is not limited to:

  • Injury & illness

  • COVID-19

  • Severe weather

  • Layoffs/terminations

  • Mechanical breakdowns

These brief descriptions are for informational purposes and do not strictly govern the terms and conditions. If you have more questions about what is covered, please visit Teak's article,

What is protected under Refund Protection?

If refund protection WAS NOT purchased at the time of your registration.

Our refund policy lasts until midnight 31/1/2027 where up until this date the withdrawn competitor will be refunded the entry fee minus the $15 administration fee. If you withdraw past this date, unfortunately, we cannot refund you. 

To be eligible for a refund, you must notify the Race Director in writing via hello@bellarinesunsetrun.com or the email tab on our website www.bellarinesunsetrun.com

Transfer Policy

For the 2027 event, we are offering a transfer window for participants to be able to transfer their entry to a friend. This will incur a $10 transfer fee, the new participant will be required to complete the registration process so we can capture critical medical and emergency information.

Distance transfers can be done up until the start of the race, the entry fee difference will be refunded up until midnight on 31/1/2027, after this point you can still transfer distance without a refund.

Withdrawal Policy (on the day)

If a competitor withdraws from the Event, they must advise the course officials of their withdrawal immediately. This will allow us to see you are safe and can direct you to appropriate assistance if required.

 It will also save time and the heartache of officials searching the course for non-finishers when they are already back having a cider. Failure to notify may jeopardise your future entry into the event.
