IMPORTANT: Registration closes when we receive our 3,000th entry. We WILL NOT have a wait list and runners who register but are unable to run WILL NOT be allowed to carry forward their entry fee to 2017. Please register only if you are committed to participating in this event.
Although the vast majority of marathons do not offer any refunds to runners who register but are unable to run, The Steamtown Marathon will give you a $25 refund if you officially withdraw NO LATER THAN 11:59 p.m. EST on September 9, 2016. The $25 will be applied to the credit card you used to enter the race. To request this partial refund, you MUST send an e-mail to [email protected] NO LATER than September 9, 2016. Your e-mail must state clearly that you are withdrawing and indicate that you are requesting the $25 refund. The Steamtown Marathon will ask the Active.com Client Support Team to apply the refund to your credit card.
