Team Competition
Team Registration Will Open in March
The BRR team competition is primarily for fun. The categories are designed to challenge those who want competition, and to amuse those who want a good time. The team awards will be small tokens that will not be worth taking performance enhancing drugs to win.
All teams must have five members. Except for the All Female category, teams must be coed with at least one man and one woman. Each BRR entrant can be a member of only one team. Other than this, there are no restrictions on who is on a team (i.e., no geographic or affiliation restrictions).
Categories:
There are five team award categories. There is one award in each category. The categories are:
- Fastest
- Slowest
- First to finish together
- Oldest total age
- Fastest All Female
Category Notes: "Finish together" means that all members must cross the finish line at roughly the same time. When the first team member crosses the finish line, the last team member to finish must be visible from the finish line. We will not give this award to teams that come close to finishing together. Frankly, we doubt we will give this award out, but it is there if you happen to qualify. You must come tell us after you finish if you think you won this category!
The "All Female" teams may qualify to win any of the five categories.
Teams do not declare a category and will be considered for all awards for which they may qualify, but may only receive one. To receive an award, all members of the team must finish officially (i.e. under 13 hours).
Last Year's Team Award
We will allow substitution of one team member if you are nice to the team coordinator. Any substitution will have to occur by April 1.
Awards: We will have a small token of each winning team's "achievement." Given the nature of the categories, all of the awards may not be decided until late on race day. If your team wants its recognition, at least one member of the team must remain to pick it up. Team awards will not be mailed.
To Form a Team
Teams are formed starting in March after the initial registration process is completed. Team captains will form a team and e-mail our Team Coordinator. By submitting a team, captains are certifying that they have talked to all proposed team members and that each member wants to be on the team and is not on another team.
Deadline
The last day to form a team will be April 1.
