Switching Your Event
Need to switch your event after you've registered?
You can do that! Whether you want to jump up or down in distance, it's important for both safety and awards purposes to be sure you're registered for the proper event you'll do on race day. Simply follow the instructions here and you'll be all set! Please note: this event transfer service is available through 11:59pm on September 21. If you need to switch on race day, we only allow dropping down in distance and you must do this by communicating with either our check-in team pre-race or our timing team all day.
Approved Bib Transfer Procedure
The Big Bad Wolfe Run is popular in Columbus, and each year it has sold out before race day. Unfortunately, this can also mean that scammers see an opportunity to take advantage of people. Our race DOES allow for bib transfers up through the day before early pickup begins each year. Please note that this transfer MUST occur through our registration software's architecture. Specifically, if you are looking to purchase a registration from someone willing to sell to you, this will happen by you receiving an email from an @runsignup.com email address that has specific instructions on how to officially complete the process.
If you are handling inter-personal monetary exchange, you still need to follow the approved transfer process. DO NOT send anyone money before you have received your registration confirmation unless you know them personally, this can be a scam! We will not provide refunds for any payments applied outside the RunSignup platform.
