Start a Ridge Run Team

Teamwork is a great way to approach a challenge. Team members give one another encouragement, share training tips and stick with their team through thick and thin. 

When it comes to BAPA’s Ridge Run, being a team means everyone reaches the finish line on Mon., May 30. It will be a great feeling when you get there! Not only will you reach your goal of finishing the race, you’ll have contributed to your team’s success.  

Ridge Run teams are versatile. People can form a team to raise funds and awareness for an important cause or charity, or to promote training and fitness goals, or just to have fun from start to finish. Your team envisions what they want to accomplish, then turns that vision into reality. What could be more energizing? 

Ridge Run teams can form from groups of family members, friends, neighbors, clubs or colleagues – just about anyone. Teams can be fiercely competitive or serenely chill. They can run the 10K or 5K — or both if they decide to take up the Ridge Run Challenge! Or they can walk the 5K.  

Ridge Run teams can also take advantage of special incentives from BAPA! Teams receive vouchers for free pizza and beer on race day, a spot to set up a tent in Team Town at Ridge Park, a free team sign, a free team picture and $5 off on Ridge Run registration fees. Teams are invited to participate in a pre-race fundraising party to benefit their charities, and enjoy Team Captain Check-in to streamline packet pickup for the entire team.  

Best of all, Ridge Run teams build a sense of community as they plan, train, compete, and celebrate their achievement.  

Now is a great time to sign up your team and begin training.
