To enter a team you must first have a team captain download a Team Registration Form (Printable Forms) allowing you to register your team and pre-pay for the minimum six entries which ensures your team's place in the race. Once paid for and received your team spots will be reserved and your captain will then be emailed a passcode for your six team members to use while registering for these pre-paid spots online. Additional teammates may be added beyond the original six members by registering (payment required) under the team category online and selecting the team name, up until registration is sold out. Teams may be all men, all women, or co-ed.
