Hi, I recently deferred my race to next year but would actually like to transfer to another race instead. Is there a way to do this if I’ve already deferred?
Hi Christina – You should have received an email with a deferment code – you can use that code for any of our races.
The only information I received in the email was that it was deferred along with my personal information, no deferment code. How do I get this?
Hi Christina – Please email info@vacationraces.com, Kaelee will be able to send it to you.
I have registered for the Great Smokey Mountains half marathon and 5K individually. How do I change to Black Bear Double?

How many times can you defer your registration?

Hey there, I am trying to transfer my race, but it is saying registration is full. Is there a wait list or a way I can know for sure if I am unable to transfer, if not will I have to forfeit the money I’ve paid? Let me know thanks!
Hi Nat, which races are you trying to transfer from/to?
We don’t do waitlists, once a race is sold out it’s sold out. Having said that if you’re not able to transfer into the race you want you could defer to the following year or transfer your bib to another runner.

My flight from Denver to St. George cancelled late Friday evening and I wasn’t able to get in to run the Zion Half. How can I transfer my registration? The time limit to transfer passed just hours after my flight cancelled an I wasn’t able to get to a computer in time to do it as I was at the airport all evening. It would be a shame if I spent over $120 and wasn’t able to transfer. I can’t find a number to call for help.
Hi Anna – I’m sorry you weren’t able to make it this weekend. I have deferred your registration – you will receive an email later today with a deferment code.
I have unexpected health issue that will keep me from running the 55k if I’m already signed up can I switch to the half marathon? I have made hotel reservations and have all my kids taking a few days off school so it would be a bummer to not participate. If not is it wise to start the 55k and drop at the half marathon mark? Also I originally paid for camping but not going to be using our spot, and last my birth year is actually 1980, my fault I rushed registration, sorry so much coming at you.
Thank you,
Jayme Baldwin
Hi Jayme – I have canceled your campsite and issued you a refund, updated your birth year, and switched you to the half marathon distance. You should receive a confirmation email.

Hello, I’m paid and registered to run the 2019 Black Bear double (5k and Half marathon) for Vacation Races Great Smokey Mountain race. Unfortunately I’m going to be having an unexpected surgery mid July and won’t be able to recover from that and train in time. I saw a short list of races I can transfer my money to but couldn’t get any more 2020 races to load after March 2020. If someone can let me know which races I can transfer the credits to and where to start that’d be amazing! Thank you!!
Hi Trinity – Only a couple of 2020 race registrations are currently open – Zion and Antelope Canyon. The rest of the year’s races will be opening soon, usually a couple of months after this year’s race. If the race you would like to transfer to isn’t open by the Smoky Mountains race, defer your registration. This means you will get a deferment code that you can use to register for any of our races.
I’m registered for the Black Bear Double and now injured. Can I transfer to *just* the Smoky Mountain Friday 5K, and transfer my Half to another half-marathon in 2020? Thanks!
Hi Julie – Technically, no. But I can transfer you to the 5k and email you a deferment code for the half marathon portion. Let me know if this is what you would like to do.
I am registered for the Black Bear Double. I am not able to run the Half Marathon due to an injury, but will walk/run the 5K. I wanted to make sure that I will be able to pick up the hoodie I purchased. Also, one of my friends deferred her half marathon and will not be running the 5K, can I pick up her hoodie?
Hi Diane – I can defer your half marathon portion of the double if you would like. In that case, I will refund the hoodie and you will receive a code for the half portion. Otherwise, you can pick up all of your swag for the double but just run the 5k. Email me at kaelee@vacationraces.com if you would like to defer a portion of your registration.
