Björn Borg Helsinki Marathon 22.8.2026 - Registration

CANCELLING YOUR PARTICIPATION

No cancellations of participation are required, unfortunately it is not possible to get a refund.

TRANSFER OF PARTICIPATION

It is possible to buy transfer insurance, which allows you to transfer the registration to next year’s Björn Borg Helsinki Marathon or to use the paid amount for another event participation. The price of transfer insurance is 10 euros. The transfer can be made only once.

If transfer insurance has not been acquired at the time of registration, the customer has the right to transfer the registration for the event to another person for a transfer fee of 10 euros, but not the right to transfer the registration to another event or to the following year.

The organizer will not refund the paid registration fee.

1. Transfer to another person

You can transfer your participation to another person (until 14.8.2026) for a transfer fee of 10 euros.

Note: Registrations paid with sport vouchers cannot be transferred to another person.

2. Transfer to next year’s Björn Borg Helsinki Marathon (requires transfer insurance)

If the participant has purchased transfer insurance at the time of registration, it is possible to transfer participation to next year’s event by 21.8.2026.

3. Transfer to another event (requires transfer insurance)

If the participant has purchased transfer insurance at the time of registration, it is possible to transfer the entry for another Runner’s High event (until 21.8.2026). After the transfer request your registration will be cancelled, and you will get a discount code worth the same amount of money you paid for your original registration.

4. Another distance at Björn Borg Helsinki Marathon 2026

You can transfer your participation to a shorter distance at Björn Borg Helsinki Marathon without an extra fee until 14.8.2026. After that we will charge 10 € for the transfer. If you want to transfer your participation to a longer distance, the fee is the difference between the fee paid for the original registration, and the current fee of the new distance (but a minimum of 10 €). The transfer has to be made by 21.8.2026.

FORCE MAJEURE

If the event has to be cancelled or cannot be held due to a force majeure, you are entitled to a refund of the registration fee. You must request the refund from the event organizer within 30 days of the organizer’s announcement of the event’s cancellation. However, the organizer is not responsible for any delays or damages resulting from the event’s cancellation or postponement due to force majeure, and you are not entitled to compensation for any additional or useless expenses incurred, such as accommodation or travel costs. Force majeure is an event or occurrence beyond the control of the organizer which the organizer could not reasonably be expected to have taken into account at the time of the conclusion of the contract or to have avoided or overcome it or its consequences. Force majeure comprehends both natural disasters and events such as civil unrest, risk to general safety, orders of public authorities or other superior force that prevents the organizing of the event.

If your name is on the participant list (and you’ve given us permission to publish it there), or you’ve received a confirmation email, your registration is in order. If you have any questions regarding your registration, please contact us via email at tapahtumat@runhigh.fi
