Jessyca Scarpone 5000m Team Prize

Sponsored by Urban Athletics

Open team (Top two Men and top two Women on a single combined team): $1500 cash

Masters team (Top two Men and top two Women on a single combined team): $500 cash

The scoring is done by total time (total time after age-graded adjustment for the masters prize). There is no limit to the number of members of the team, but you must have at least two men and two women to score. The scoring only includes the top two men and top two women, so there is no disadvantage to adding additional runners.

All prizes subject to change

Add an optional custom Fractel running hat to your registration order for $40, while supplies last
