What is the difference between registering as an individual and joining a team?
You can take on the course individually, or as a part of a team - team members can participate in either the Fun Run or the 5K, or both. You do not have to participate in the same event.
Anyone can create a team! We have families, friends, schools, clubs, local companies, and volunteers that create Run to Victory teams. Run to Victory teams also join together to reach their fundraising goals. Some of our teams even create their own team shirts to run in on race day!
How do I create or join an existing team?
If your team is new, your Team Leader will create the team during their registration and send you a link to join. If your team leader does not send you a link, you can join by clicking here. Once you create a team or join an existing team, you can recruit team members, encourage the team to fundraise, and keep everyone inspired!
Can I transfer my registration if I can no longer participate?
Yes. Transfers will be accepted through 8/26/24. Email Cathy Davis at cdavis@victoryjunction.org to process your transfer.
Where do I go once I get to Victory Junction on race day?
Once you arrive at Gate 1, you will be directed to our visitor parking lot in front of the Walmart Administration Building. After you park, make your way down into Camp to pick up your packet at the Sports Center (if you haven’t already), grab a quick bite to eat in the Fuel Stop, and get ready for the race!
