    Now – December 31: $70

    January 1 – February 28th – $80

    March 1 – March 26 – $90

    Does one person need to register the whole team?

    No! One person does not need to handle registering the whole team. However, a person on your team will need to be designated as a Team Captain when registering. This person will need to sign up before anyone else on your team to create a team by choosing the Register Captain option. The Team Captain will choose a team password which participants will enter when they join a team from the Register Teammate option. Team Captains will also choose a team name which participants will be able to choose from a drop-down menu.

    The reason we also have the team password to connect teams beyond just the team name is that sometimes teammates choose the wrong team or there are teams with very similar names.

    If you need assistance registering, please email events@runawayshoes.net

    Exchanges

    There will be no formal exchange zones. Teams may exchange on their own. Teams will be sent off with mobile support (hydration, etc.).
