SquadRace London
On SquadRace is back!
With a large real live event in London on November 16th.
Ready to show the town what you can do? Let’s get started!
Together we rise. Welcome to On SquadRace, where running becomes the ultimate team sport. Where collective goals meet personal performance. Where speed, strategy and performance mix in an action-packed competition. Every runner, every step and every second counts. Let’s go!
SquadRace tests you and your teammates against runners in your own country and across Europe. It’s about speed, dedication and team size.
RULES
EVERY RUNNER COUNTS
Your squad must be at least 30% female and contain at least seven runners. Other than this, feel free to build your squad as large as you want. We’ll take 1 second off your final time for every runner who joins you on race day.
GO ALL OUT
It’s race day! Each squad member runs 5 km as fast as possible. It’s not about the individual, it’s about your squad’s average time. So, you’ll start and finish as a team.
LOWEST AVERAGE TEAM TIME WINS
Your final team time is the average time your team spends running, minus 1 second for every team member who takes part on race day (up to the 100th runner).
Feel like being part of it?
