Earn the Cup for Best Club or Corporation in Greensboro!

To fuel your naturally competitive nature, we will be adding a Club and Corporate Cup Challenge to all of our events this year! So if you think your running (or other athletic) club or company can beat all the others in the triad, step up to the plate – or starting line, as it were – to take on the challenge. Here’s how it works:

  1. When you register for any of our events, join your club or corporate team (you must be an employee of the corporation or family member, or a current club member of whichever team you join)
  2. Finish the race to get a point (the more people from your team show up, the more points you get!)
  3. Place in your age group for even more points!
  4. At the end of the year (after the Race the Bar Crawl on Nov 20th) we will announce the winning team and host a party to award them the cup, which they will get to display proudly throughout 2017
  5. The next year, the challenge starts all over again!

    • 1st place in age group = 20
    • 2nd place in age group = 18
    • 3rd place in age group = 15

Corporate Cup Points:
  • There will be two corporate cup divisions. The divisions will be based on the number of employees each company has locally. Division I will be larger companies and Division II will be smaller (the exact split line will be determined once we know which companies are competing).
  • Every runner will earn 1 point for their team for completing the race. This means the more runners each company brings out the more points they score!
