Note: Registration is per person, not per team. 

The relay has 14 legs, and teams can range from 2 to 7 people, depending on how often each person wants to run. Your entry includes a safe course, timing, finisher medals, socks, and food & drinks at the finish.

No. Walking teams cover Legs 1-4 and 11-14, totaling 35 miles instead of 69. Most walking teams have four members to complete these eight legs. For more details, check the B2K Course Manual.

Leap-frogging allows a team to finish sooner by having two runners complete two different legs at the same time. To do this, you must get permission from the race director (before the relay or via ham radio operators during the race).

✅ Rules for Leap-Frogging:

• Teams must record individual leg times on the Scorecard for accurate results.
• Running teams may leap-frog with permission.
• Walking teams may NOT leap-frog.
• Leap-frogging is only allowed starting at Leg 9 to avoid delays on gravel roads and ensure exchanges are staffed.

Not at all! Leap-frogging helps teams that might otherwise struggle to finish within the 13-hour time limit. It doesn’t shorten the course or reduce overall team time—it simply allows more participants to cross the finish line and enjoy the post-race festivities!
