Step 2
How to register
Online
- Choose your distance under Register. If you're registering your partner (80K or 100 miles) or your family, use Register your family or partner: up to 10 people in one purchase, each with their own entry. Hikers in the half marathon register for the half marathon and let us know on WhatsApp.
- Create your account with your basic details and, if you come with a group or club, enter its group code.
- Pay in full or in installments from COP 50,000, online with Wompi or by bank transfer. You pay the balance later from your account.
- Complete your account: under My documents, upload your ID and sign your waiver online. If you're a local runner, request the local discount there.
- Check your inbox: once you've paid 100%, you get your registration confirmation.
In person
At the Ríos y Canoas office, at the entrance to El Gallineral Park, San Gil. Local runners can apply the residents' discount there.
On WhatsApp
Message us at +57 320 833 8139 with your choice and we will send you instructions.
Registration stays open until spots run out, and spots go to the first athletes who complete the whole process. Every runner (including guests, deferred entries, in-person payments and vouchers) must be registered on the platform and complete the payment by the deadline: it is the only way to secure a spot.

Pairs category
Run the 80K or 100 miles as a pair
Many runners dream of the 80K or the 100 miles but don't want to take them on alone, or simply want a different experience. The pairs category is for them.
- Who: two people, regardless of age or gender. There is a single pairs category in each distance.
- Requirements: each runner meets the requirements of their distance and carries their own mandatory gear.
- Registration: register together in one purchase with Register your family or partner, add both people in the same distance and pair them in the pairs category. If you already registered separately, let us know so we can pair you.
- On course: you start and run together the whole way; the team's time is that of the last partner to cross the finish, a checkpoint or a cut-off. You may help each other by pulling, pushing or carrying gear.
- Awards: medals for the top three pairs, in-kind prizes when available and an individual finisher medal. No prize money and no individual, overall or age-group ranking.
Before you pay
Purchase, change and refund policy
By registering you accept the race rules, the environmental policy and these terms. This is a summary; the exact dates of each window are published in the current edition's policy.
Can I get a refund?
No. Entry fees are not refunded for any reason, even if you cannot take part due to unforeseeable circumstances or force majeure, or if an authority prevents the event from taking place on the scheduled date.
The only exception is a payment reversal for e-commerce purchases under Article 51 of Colombian Law 1480 of 2011: request it within 5 days of purchase by email to info@chicamochacanyonrace.com, attaching your payment receipt, contact details and request. Payment platform and bank timelines apply.
How do I request a change, transfer or deferral?
Email info@chicamochacanyonrace.com with your name, ID number, mobile number and what you want to do with your spot:
- Transfer your entry: name, ID, phone, email and distance of the person taking your spot.
- Change distance: your current and new distance. If you move up to a longer distance, attach proof of payment for the difference.
Your request is only final once you receive our confirmation email. Afterwards, you or the new runner must update details and documents on the runner platform.
What if I defer my spot to next year?
- You can defer only once, for one year; an already deferred spot can only be transferred within the allowed dates.
- To activate it you pay the difference with next year's fee at the time of activation. The discounts you bought with do not carry over.
- Complimentary, raffle and prize entries, flash-sale entries or discounts above 30%, and requests made outside the deadlines cannot be deferred.
Until when can I make changes, and what do they cost?
The policy has three windows before the race:
- Until the administrative cut-off (when the team prints bibs, medals and shirts and books insurance and suppliers): changes, transfers and deferrals with no admin fee.
- During the following month: free changes with a medical certificate; without one, an admin fee applies (COP 100,000 in 2026).
- From the end of the second window until the race: no deferrals. Only transfers or distance changes with the admin fee, and the shirt and bib will be those already assigned to the original runner unless a new one is available.
In every case you pay any fee difference between years or from a shorter to a longer distance.
I couldn't race and made no changes. What are my options?
- A friend can collect your T-shirt (not the bib or medal) during kit pick-up, with the third-party authorization you sign online from your account, and letting us know you won't race.
- You can ask by email for the shirt to be shipped to an address in Colombia within the policy deadline; you pay the courier on delivery.
- You can claim, with your ID number, a COP 100,000 discount for the next edition.
Can someone else run with my bib?
No. Nobody may race in your name, with or without your bib: it puts the runner and the organization at risk. Anyone impersonating a registered runner will be disqualified and banned from future editions, and if the registered runner authorized it, they receive the same sanction.
Where can I read the full policy?
In the purchase, change and refund policy (in Spanish), with Corporación Deporteza details, purchase conditions and every deadline for the edition.
FAQ
Registration questions
Until when can I register?
Until spots run out or until the closing date shown on the registration platform. Spots go to the first athletes who complete their registration and payment.
How do I confirm my registration?
Once your entry is 100% paid you get a confirmation email with your registration details, and your account shows your payments and your receipt. If it didn't arrive, message us at +57 320 833 8139.
How do group registrations work?
Groups of more than 10 people get an extra 10% off the current stage price and one free entry for every 20 paying runners (runner number 21 races free in the half marathon or marathon).
- Create the group: the leader messages us on WhatsApp at +57 320 833 8139 with the group's name and the approximate number of runners. We create the group and send its group code.
- Register the members: each runner registers under Register and enters the code, or the leader uploads everyone with the Excel template from their account, under My group.
- Pay: each member pays from their account (in full or in installments), or the leader pays for everyone in a single payment, online or with one bank transfer (bank transfers have no service fee).
Each runner's confirmation email arrives once their entry is 100% paid, and the price is that of the stage in which they complete payment. To register your partner or family (up to 10 people), use Register your family or partner, without the group discount.
I have a spot deferred from last edition. What should I do?
If you deferred within the deadlines and received confirmation, your spot is guaranteed until the new edition's administrative cut-off. To activate it:
- Message us at +57 320 833 8139 with your name, ID number and case, and tell us you want to activate your deferred spot.
- We check the system and activate your entry or tell you its status.
- Pay the fee difference and, if you were told when deferring, the corresponding penalty based on the deferral date.
Do it in time: after the administrative cut-off the team prints bibs and assigns logistics, supplier and insurance lists. A deferred spot cannot be deferred again.
Can minors register?
Yes, in the half marathon and marathon (marathon from age 16), accompanied by an adult who is also registered, and with the waiver for minors signed online by a parent or legal guardian. The 80K and 100 miles are for runners 18 and over. See the details in the race rules.
When will I know my bib number?
A few weeks before the race, bib number, category and distance lookup opens. Search with your ID number (no dots, commas or spaces), your first name or your last name. Check your details and report any error in time: changes made during kit pick-up do not change your bib or wristband.
I've registered. What's next?
Go to your account > My documents: upload your ID and sign your waiver online (if you run the 80K or 100 miles, also keep your distance's certificates in mind). If you run the half marathon or marathon, book your bus in your account, under "Transport to Jordán". Review the technical information for your distance and the race rules, and get your mandatory gear ready: without it you will not receive your kit.
