New for 2012! There will be "Team" division. Teams may be of from 2 to 6 people. There will be First Place prize for top male, top female, and top mixed team.
How to register.
One person must register as the "TEAM CAPTAIN" at the rate of $40. Each additional person registers as a "TEAM MEMBER" at the rate of $20 each. Make sure each person enters the "TEAM NAME" identically to the captain. All team members get the shirt & poster. Note that the first person on the "5" and "6" member teams may, after tagging a team-mate at mile 2, proceed to complete (and be eligible for prizes in) the 5K race. Click here to see a map and description of all possible teams (from 2 to 6 members)
Included in this pdf file are suggested team formats. As long as you tag each other, and cover the entire course, you may make an alternative arrangement to the suggestion(s). You must familiarize yourself with the course and the locations of the two “tag”spots prior to the start of the event. You will be responsible for getting to your designated spot on your own (cars may be parked close to both tag points). Both spots are located at water/gatorade stops and have a portable toilet on site. Point A is at East Cooper Ave. between 8th and 9th Streets. Point B is on Ashley Avenue at the East end of the “washout” (a long stretch of beach with no houses on the beach side).
