Transfer Virtual Race Activities from one Result to Another.

Modified on 20 November

Some Virtual Challenges offer the ability for you, as the Participant, to transfer to a different Event. For instance, there may be a 50 Mile run challenge, and a 100 Mile run challenge that they allow you to "upgrade" to. 


When you transfer Events, you will see that the form states that any activity data that has already been entered will be lost when you transfer. 



Sometimes this is not an issue, for instance if the Events are a different format (like a cycling climbing challenge instead of a run distance challenge), but other times you may want to count your already recorded activities towards your new Event registration.


If you need to transfer your activity data, you can do so by downloading your activities, then simply importing them back into the activity logging form of the new Event once you have completed the transfer.
