The Mount Hood Nutcracker Challenge

XC Team divisions

Runners interested in being part of a 3- or 4-person team have the option of creating a team or joining an existing team during registration.

Creating or joining a team during registration

You'll have an option to do this when registering starting with 'Sign Up', or by clicking on the 'XC Teams' menu.  Note: Team name is different from a Running Club name.  You can enter your Running Club after the Team entry section.

Creating or joining a team after registration

Multiple ways!

Sign into your RunSignUp account.  Select this race, then Manage Registration, and go to the Teams menu.
Team Captains can add or change team members online by signing into their RunSignUp account and doing the following steps: Profile / <select this race> / Groups /  Edit Group / Back to XC Team Page / Add Member.  You'll need the name and e-mail address each runner uses for RunSignUp.
A Team Administrator (see below) can assign you to a team.
Team Captains can fill out a Team Registration form on race day, providing member names and bib numbers

Club Team Administrator option

If a club likes to assign members to teams after seeing who has registered, a designated Club 'Team Administrator' can become the Team Captain for all of their club's teams. Create a RunSignUp account if you don't already have one, then e-mail the following information by 12/9/24 to: mhnc@melroserunningclub.com
     1) Team Administrator's name and e-mail address used for the RunSignUp account
     2) All the Team names and their respective Team division
The Team Administrator will then be assigned as the Team Captain for all the teams.  He or she can then go to their account and Manage Registration, select Groups, then for each team name, select Edit Group to assign team members.  Changes can be made online right up until race time.
