Rules and Logistics
Each team member runs only one 4.464 mile leg. It is okay to run a leg on more than one team. Women may compete in any of the men's divisions; however this renders the team ineligible for PAUSATF Grand Prix Awards. Team members within the same division may be changed after registration, but division changes must be made at registration.
