Relay Team Registration Guide

Step 1: Creating a Team (Team Captain)

To create a team for the relay, the team captain will:

  1. Complete registration on Race Roster
  2. Submit payment for the entire team.

Deadline to complete relay teams is November 16. After that, any changes must be made at the CIM Expo.

Step 2: Adding Your Teammate

Once your team is created, you can add your teammate using one of the two following methods:

Option 1: Add Your Teammate During Team Creation

You’ll need to have the following information ready for both runners before you start:

  • Full Name
  • Gender
  • Birthdate
  • Email Address
  • Mailing Address
  • Cell Phone Number
  • Emergency Contact & Phone Number
  • T-Shirt Size

At the end of your registration, click “Register Another” and input your teammate’s details. You will choose your team name from a dropdown menu.

Option 2: Invite Your Teammate to Register Themselves

After you’ve created the team:

  • You’ll see a confirmation page with an invitation link to send to your teammate.
  • You can also retrieve this link from your Race Roster dashboard.

Share this link with your teammate and make sure they:

  • Click “Join a Team” (not “Team Captain”).
  • Know the correct team name
  • Use the passcode you selected during team creation.
Managing Team Changes
  • Need to swap a teammate before November 16?
