The competition is open to teams of ten from any setting (clubs / groups of friends / workplaces, etc.)

A runner is allowed to run for multiple teams, so long as each team is from a different setting.
There is no discount for runners who run in more than one team.
Each course (stage) must be run by a different runner. A runner who competes with more than one team MUST run a different course (stage) for each team.
Each team must consist of at least three women and three men – an under 16 is also encouraged.
Each team must have a Team Leader who will be responsible for registration, administation, and results. Each team must also have a team name.
