2012 Syracuse University Team Member Information - Race Day Rules and Event Details

Race Day Rules

Different rules exist for walkers and runners participating in the Chase Corporate Challenge. It is important for each team member to review the rules of the Chase Corporate Challenge prior to Race Day.

Specific Race Day Rules

Only registered participants with race numbers are permitted on the official course.
All participants must complete the medical emergency information on the back of their race numbers.
All participants must wear their assigned race numbers, clearly visible on the front of the torso during the race. Numbers must be displayed in full view, and may not be folded or cut in any way. Anyone found running/walking with another person's number will be disqualified, and risks disqualification for the entire team.
Walker Policy: All walkers must start at the back of the field. They may not start in front of any runners, and may not start the race early. Walkers must follow the 3.5-mile course route and may not take optional or shortened routes. Violation of this policy may lead to disqualification of the entire company team from this and future Series events.
All team members must participate unaided. Roller skates, skateboards, rollerblades, baby joggers, roller skis, bicycles, strollers, or animals are strictly prohibited anywhere along the race course. Their use will result in disqualification of the individual runner and possibly the entire company.

New This Year - Chip-timing

The Syracuse JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge will introduce chip-timing this year. Race numbers will contain a timing chip, and your time will be recorded based on when you cross the start and finish lines. There is no need to collect and enter finish times after the race.
