Registration Information
Each team must pick a Team Name (appropriate for public announcement) and designate a Team Captain. The Captain must be a member of the team and will be responsible for registering the team, making payment, and relaying any information passed to them by the Race Directors.
Before registering, it is important for the Team Captain to have all the information necessary to complete the registration form. You will need from each runner: Name, Address, Cell Phone, E-Mail, Birthdate, T-Shirt Size, Expected Pace Per Mile, and Luther Class (if applicable). To help gather this information in one spot, we've provided a Team Prep Form (PDF).
Registration for the Relay Race is available only online and should be completed by the Team Captain. It should take approximately 30 minutes to complete registration.
