Transfers
NEW! Transfer Process to another person (non promo code registrants)
For the health and safety of all participants, it is important to have accurate information of actual participants and especially during emergency situations. Only official transfers during the transfer period will be allowed. A person who runs under someone else’s bib or doesn’t wear a bib will be disqualified and may face suspension from future Bay Races.
Transfer period closes at 9:00 am on March 22, 2026.
If you transfer your entry to someone else, you do not receive any of the race swag. The transfer recipient will receive the race swag.
- An original* registrant who paid this year for the 2026 entry race can initiate the transfer by logging into your account through Race Roster. (See text box below for registrants who used a promo/deferral code to register.) You will need to log in and click the Transfer link near the top of your page Bay Race profile page. Choose “Transfer to a new participant”
After initiating the transfer and inputting new registrant’s email address, the new registrant receives an email with registration link to input new registrant info and make payment (registration and transfer fees ~$20). Once transfer is completed, original registrant will receive a registration refund (does not include processing fees) and will be removed from the race.
No exchange of funds is required between original registrant and new registrant. (Only applies to registrants who paid for 2026 race, not using a promo code. See below for promo code registrants).
Products and Extras are non-transferable: E.g. Medal Personalization, Deferral Option Package, Race Day Pickup, and additional apparel purchased through the store or during the registration process are all non-transferable.
A credit in the form of a promo code (applicable to 2027 race) will be issued in September 2026 to the original registrant for products or extras (excluding additional apparel) purchased.
Additional apparel purchased will be mailed to the original registrant.
| * PROMO CODE REGISTRANTS. If original registrant registered with a deferral/promo code, then please email info@bayrace.com with the name and email of transfer recipient. We will have to initiate the transfer. When a promo/deferral code was used to register, the transfer recipient pays the original recipient for the entry. Any sale of an entry is a private one and we are not involved in the private transaction. We recommend the original registrant transfers first, then the transfer recipient pays the original registrant. If transfer recipient does not honour the sale agreement, we can remove the transfer recipient from the race and transfer recipient would face a 1-year/race suspension from participating in the Bay Race. Note: Transfer fee of ~$20 is payable by the transfer recipient during the online transfer completion process. |
Refunds are not issued to the original registrant when a promo code is used.
