Where: TBD
Join us for the fourth round of Hot Laps sponsored by Runners Roost, Citius RC, and Our Mutual Friend. This relay race takes it back to the streets in this third iteration. Teams of four race to complete as many laps as they can in 45 minutes. The top five teams with the most laps progress to a final round where the fastest laps win.
Relay teams are mixed gendered and created by racers before they sign up. Each team should at a minimum have one member of the opposite gender (2 girls/2 guys, 3 girls/1 guy, etc.). Assign a team captain to retrieve team bibs and baton Wednesday, July 23rd from Runners Roost Denver – 1685 S Colorado Blvd J, Denver, CO 80222 or come early to pick up day of. (If you do not have a team to sign up with, one will be assigned on race day. Please plan on picking up your bib at the registration table to be assigned a team.)
Hot Laps takes inspiration from the motor racing world where cars compete on fixed courses to complete as many laps in a set time.
Similar to the world of car racing, Hot Laps require teamwork. Mixed gendered teams will compete on an unsanctioned course where each member has to exchange in a predetermined zone. To keep track of laps, after the baton is passed, each runner will receive a marker from their designated volunteer. At the 45 minute mark, teams will add up their marks and we will advance the teams with the most laps to the final round.
