Best Damn Race Returns to Safety Harbor in 2021 with a Discount and Money-Back Guarantee if Cancelled Due to COVID

9/28/2020

 

UPDATE: NEW RACE DATE IS OCTOBER 15-17, 2021

Due to COVID, the Best Damn Race Safety Harbor weekend was rescheduled. See you in October!

The Best Damn Race has race events scheduled for Safety Harbor, Orlando, and New Orleans in February and March 2021. I'm wishing and hoping that we get to run IRL then!

BDR understands that everyone is nervous and hopeful about in-person races. That's why they announced a money-back guarantee if COVID keeps us away from the starting line.

Keep reading for all the details!

2021 Best Damn Race Options If Any Event is Cancelled Due to COVID-19

Best Damn race understands that deferring a race or going virtual doesn't work for everyone. That's why they added a full refund option (minus the processing fee) for 2021 events cancelled by COVID.

The best way to support a race organization is to defer your race or run it virtually; but if that isn't possible BDR gives you an extra option. That's very cool.
If a 2021 BDR event is cancelled due to COVID-19 you can:
  1. Defer to 2022 at no charge.
  2. Go Virtual. Get your medal and swag in the mail.
  3. Receive a full refund of your race fee minus your RunSignup processing fee.
For example: if you pay $20 for your 5K + a $2.50 processing fee, you will get $20 refund; if you pay $90 for your Triple Challenge + the $6.15 processing fee, your refund is $90 (not $96.15).

If the event happens, you still have the option to:
  1. Transfer to another runner up to 2 weeks out, at no charge.
  2. Defer to 2022: up to 8 days out = no charge, up to 4 days out = $15 charge, no deferrals less than 4 days out.
  3. Transfer to another city up to 4 weeks out. No charge unless the other event costs more, then you just pay the difference.​
