Q: How does the Masters division work?
A: The Masters division is for teams with an average age of 40 or older. Just add up your team’s ages and divide by the number of teammates to check eligibility.

 

Q: Will all teammates participate in every event? 

A: Each workout has a description listed on the competition registration page. Please look at those descriptions for details on how many athletes are required for each event. Note: There are specific events that require female athlete participation. 

 

Q: Can our team have more than one female?
A: Absolutely! We just require a minimum of one female per team.

 

Q: Is swimming required for everyone?
A: Only two team members need to complete the swim relay. If swimming isn’t your thing, you can focus on other events!

 

Q: What happens if we can’t find a sponsor?
A: No worries—you don’t need a sponsor to participate. But it’s a great way to offset costs and involve your workplace or a local business in the fun.
