(New For 2025) Divine Intervention Refund
Yes. We have you covered even against Divine Intervention! If a natural disaster, accident, or other incident outside of human control causes Cal Tri Events or a municipal authority to cancel a race in its entirety, we will automatically refund your registration fee in full.

An “Act of God” refers to a severe, unanticipated natural event for which no human is responsible. Cal Tri Events reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion, whether an Act of God has taken place. If an Act of God forces cancellation of an entire race, registered participants will have a period of three (3) days after the date of the original race to transfer their registrations to a future Cal Tri Events race. No fees, other charges, or adjustments apply to this transfer, even if the registration fee of the new race is higher than the registration fee of the cancelled race. If the registration fee of the new race is less than the registration fee of the cancelled race, no refund is available for the difference.

If the athlete does not transfer the registration to a new Cal Tri Events race within the three day period after the date of the cancelled race, and as long as they have not transferred or deferred the registration for the cancelled race from a different, earlier race, Cal Tri Events will refund the registration fee for the cancelled race in full.

If the registration for the cancelled race was itself a transfer or deferral from another, earlier race, then no refund is available. In that event, if the athlete does not transfer the registration to a future race within the three day window after the cancelled race, they forfeit the race registration.

This policy describes the only circumstance under which Cal Tri Events will issue refunds of registration fees.

No refunds are available if Cal Tri Events or a municipal authority cancels or modifies a portion of a race, but Cal Tri Events produces a modified race format.

Cal Tri Events reserves the right to alter, amend, or discontinue this refund policy or any portion of the policy at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion. Any changes to the refund policy will apply both to future registrations and to existing registrations.
