How do I start a relay team and add teammates?
-
The Team Captain registers first and creates the team during registration.
-
The Captain pays the full team entry fee and is responsible for collecting money from teammates separately.
-
Once the team is set up, the Captain shares the team name with their teammates.
-
Teammates register for the Marathon Relay and select the team during registration.
-
Each team is limited to 5 members. Once 5 runners are signed up, the team is full.

If your group has multiple teams, one runner can pick up for all.
