What are the Corporate Relay Races categories?
The Corporate Relay Race Categories are:
- Corporate Burn 4 x 420 m (for serious runners, company employees and/or non-company employees)
- Humpty's Dash 4 x 105 m (company employees only)
Rally your industry colleagues and create your own industry race. Current races include:
- Build & Construction Industry Relay 4 x 105 m
- Professional Services Industry Relay 4 x 105 m
- Banking & Finance Industry Relay 4 x 105 m
- Motor Industry Industry Relay 4 x 105 m
The Corporate Burn has four runners per team and is run in the below format:
- All four runners in the team make their way to the holding bays located at the start line. Here you will get in your running order, i.e., Runner 1, Runner 2, Runner 3, then Runner 4. Each team member begins at the start line located at the bottom of Awaba Street.
- At the starters gun, Runner 1 starts running up the hill to cross the finish line (the full 420 metres).
- Team members at the bottom of the hill on the start line must listen out for their bib number to be called out over the PA system. When you hear your number called, for example: '108 GO', that is the cue for the next runner to start. Have your listening ears turned on!
- Each team member must run/walk up the hill (420 m) and cross the finish line in order for the team to register a 'Team Time', which is the combined times of all four runners.
Humpty's Dash (including industry specific races Build & Construction Industry, Professional Services Industry, Motor Industry and Banking & Finance) is a true relay event where each runner only covers a 105 m leg of the 420 m racecourse before passing the baton to the next runner. It is still a four-person team relay and each runner must be an employee of the sponsoring company. Corporate teams participating in Humpty's Dash (including industry-specific races) MUST assemble at the start line at 11:30 am for start line marshalling.
