TEAMS
Both Camp
Conquest and Real Life Community Services value community and teamwork. We
encourage runners to find friends, family members and co-workers to form a team
of four to complete the course. This is also the best way to ensure that you
will run in the same wave as your friends.
INDIVIDUALS
We welcome
individual runners too! The first two waves of the day are reserved for
individual runners who would like to compete against other runners. Medals will
be given to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd fastest
times of all runners in these waves. Every wave after these two will be for any
runners who want to see how far they can push themselves and how fast they can
complete the course.
SPECTATORS
We encourage
family members and friends to join and cheer on runners during the event. There will be information tables on the athletic field near the start line with information about the run, Camp Conquest, and REAL Life Community Services.
