How to register a team
The Relay Team Captain creates a team, determines the team division and pays for the entire team. Once the Team Captain has created and paid for a team, members can join that team. To register as a team member, go through the same registration link but choose “JOIN EXISTING TEAM” category rather than the “CREATE TEAM.” The field will be limited to the first 125 teams who enter.
A Mixed Team must have at least one member of the opposite sex. A team member must run at least one full leg, and individual runner may run up to four legs in any order chosen. Relay runners will be identified by their assigned relay bibs worn on the front and back. Exchanges will take place only at one of the designated exchange points. Teams making exchanges elsewhere may be subject to disqualification. 1st place teams in the Men, Women and Mixed divisions receive a free entry into next year’s Relay Race. Relay entrants must be 6 years of age or older on race day.

Policies
See our policies page for refund and deferral policies, and the liability waiver.
The Cape Cod Marathon Weekend does not allow, support or encourage the buying, selling or trading of bib numbers for any of our races, for any reason. Running with someone else’s name & information or running as a ‘bandit’ causes chaos and can be potentially dangerous in the event of a medical emergency.
