We understand the many circumstances that may not allow you to be with your team on race day.  We do allow team captains to transfer registrations from one team member to another if you cannot participate up until April 5th at 11:59 pm.  After that date and time, no transfers or switches are allowed.  Also, wearing someone else’s number in not permitted. We hope you can join us next year.


RACE DAY


Q?: What do I wear on Race Day?


Most importantly good running shoes, even if you’re walking! We always suggest moisture wicking materials for shirt, shorts, and socks. Remember this an evening race, so we suggest bright colors and may be a shirt for after you run as it may be cool in the evening. Check your last minute race instructions email for weather updates. You can always stop into Running Zone to ask us! Ask your team captain if you are all wearing company colors or a company shirt.


SHIRTS


Q?: How do I know what size to pick when registering?

The shirts are unisex technical t-shirts. They will not shrink.

 

TEAM


Q?: How do I form a team?


You can create a team very easily! By creating the team, you become the team captain. If you are participating in the race you must register yourself as well.


Q?: Do I have to be a Member of a Team to run?


Yes! This race is all about teams and camaraderie with coworkers! Talk to your coworkers about starting a team. You only need 4 employees (with 1 member of the opposite sex to count as a Co-ed team! Otherwise teams of 4 employees all of the same sex can compete as female or male teams.


Q?: What constitutes a team?


Minimum 4 employees. Co-Ed Teams must have at least 1 member of the opposite sex.


TEAM CAPTAIN


Q?: What does it mean to become the team captain?


Yay! Great leadership skills! As team captain, you will create a team for your company and will need to know some basic information like the address, number of employees, and name of your CEO. You will get a spiffy Team Captain shirt for leading your team! When setting up the team you should have financial authority from your company if your company is deciding to pay for employee registrations. You can always set up the team for members to each pay for themselves. Team Captains are asked to attend the team captain’s meeting to learn about the race, pick up their shirt, and other marketing materials to help recruit team members. We also ask that you know some basics about the race like date, time, and location all found on the website and how to register in case any of your team members might need some assistance. They can also give us a call, but a little employee camaraderie goes a long way in the office. You will also be in charge of picking up your teams’ race bibs the day before the race and distributing them on race day. You do not have to race yourself if you don’t want to, but we hope you join in the fun! It’s all what you make of it!


Q?: What if I can’t make the Team Captain’s Meeting?


See if someone else from your team can join in your place or contact Running Zone to arrange a time to pick up your items.


Q?: Does my team need to wear the same color on race day?


We highly suggest team spirit by wearing your company colors!


Q?: What if I need to change some of my company information?


Please contact Running Zone to update the team information so we have your team in the right category and can make any changes like change in management.


TENT


Q?: Can we bring our own tent?


Due to safety concerns with weather and for organization, we no longer allow tents to be brought to the race site. If your company would like to have a tent for race day, please sign into your account and see the Team Captain’s Store to rent a tent. These tents are professionally set up and weighted to be sure tents are secure.


Q?: How do we rent a tent?


Team captains have access to rent a tent through their profile in RunSignUp. Go to your profile, View My Team, Go To Captain Store. There are different size tents available to rent. Details are listed on the page with pricing.


Q?: How will I know which tent is ours? 

When renting a tent, your team captain may bring 1 banner to display with rope or zip ties to the front of your tent


Q?: What if my team didn’t rent a tent? Where do I meet with them?


Your team captain should decide on a meeting place. The start line is going to be busy, and often participants don’t run with their phones. We suggest your team decides on a location like where team pictures are being taken, one of the sponsors tents to meet with your team, or maybe the beer truck and wearing corporate colors so you can find each other in the crowd!
