Deferrals
You may only defer to and from the same event: 2026 Get Nauti Challenge to 2027, 2026 Half Marathon to the 2027 Half Marathon, 2026 10K to 2027 10K, 2026 5K to 2027 5K. Refunds will not be issued under any circumstances. You may only defer an entry once (i.e., if you deferred your 2025 entry to 2026, you will not be able to defer it again in 2026 to 2027.)
The deadline to defer is Friday, November 6, 2026 at 11:59 PM EST. After that time you will not be able to defer to the following year.
Deferral Fees:
$60 for Get Nauti Challenge
$50 for Nauti Lite Challenge
$45 for Half Marathon
$40 for 10K
$30 for 5K
We do not allow deferrals for the Kids Mile.
You may switch from your current Norfolk Harbor Weekend race to a different distance that weekend, however you will not receive a refund if the race to which you are switching has a lower registration fee. If you are switching to a further distance or from a single race to the challenge, you must pay the difference in race fee from what you initially paid for your original category to your new race category at the time of the switch. You can only switch into events that are open. Once an event sells out, you will not be able to switch into it.
The deadline to switch your race category online is Thursday, November 19, 2026 at 11:59 PM or when the race sells out—whichever occurs first.
You may transfer your race entry to another individual for a fee of $25.00 + any difference in race price at the time of transfer. Race entries must be officially transferred. Allowing another individual to run with your race bib without transferring your race entry is grounds for disqualification from the results and banning from all future J&A Racing events.
The deadline to initiate a transfer is Wednesday, October 28, 2026 at 11:59 PM. At that time the transfer option will be closed and will not be re-opened. The deadline to claim a transfer is Wednesday, November 4, 2026 at 11:59 PM.
