Question: How do I start a team and have my teammates join?
Answer –
1. The team captain will register themselves for the Marathon Relay and set up the team on the first page of registration.
2. The team captain will pay the registration fee for the relay and is responsible for collecting payment from team members outside of our registration system.
3. Once the captain is registered and the team is set up the Captain can let their friends know the team is set up and that they can join the team.
4. For the remaining members, they will register for the Marathon Relay and will need to join the group/team that the Captain set up when registering.
5. Each team allows for 5 team members and once 5 members have registered the team will be set and will not allow anyone else to join that team.

Question: Do you have a race day packet pick-up?
Answer – Yes, however we strongly discourage it. If you will be picking up on race day then we recommend you arrive on-site before 6:00 AM to avoid large crowds and long lines. Please plan to pick-up your packet no later than 30 minutes before the start of the race to avoid any delay. We highly discourage waiting until race day to pick-up your team’s race packet! We will start the race on time and you risk the possibility of having the race start as you wait in line to get your stuff!
Question: Who can pick up the team race packet/goodie bag ?
Answer – To ensure a registered participant receives event information and race materials (bib and souvenir t-shirt), only a person listed as a runner for the team can pick up. This will preferably be the Team Captain, but if they cannot then any other designated runner on the team can pick up. Please bring a photo ID. No ID, no packet pick-up. If your group has multiple teams, a designated runner from of the the teams may pick-up for the group.

Question: Will there be refreshments at the finish line?
Answer – Yes, there will be plenty of refreshments for all registered participants (don’t lose your race bib).
