FISH OF SANIBEL-CAPTIVA 10K/5K running group at last year’s event.
Sanibel-Captiva’s FISH recently announced new additions to this year’s JOG N JAM, scheduled for December 7th. It’s an opportunity for teams to participate in in-person 10K and 5K races.
Participants will have the chance to join forces with friends, family and colleagues to form teams and win prizes in team competitions. Racers must sign up as part of a team during the entry process.
“We are excited to make this addition and celebrate team spirit at the starting line.” said Leah Winkler, co-chair of the JOG N JAM Committee. “We look forward to inviting all teams to take part in the new team competition, whether they are experienced runners, family teams, or colleagues looking for a fun fitness challenge.”
Scored by official timer Lin-Mark Sports, the team competition will run as follows:
– Top 5 Scorers: Each team can have any number of participants, but only the top 5 players will count towards the team’s score.
– Chip time determines the winner: The top five chip times are summed to give the team’s total time. The team with the fastest total chip time wins.
– Tiebreaker: In case of a tie, the team with the highest 6th place will be declared the winner.
One team award will be given per race.
Individuals with top team scores are also eligible to win overall or age group awards.
As of September 24, the following teams are registered: Captial Fitness, Doc Ford’s Sanibel, Lexi’s Legion, Lindsey, The Sanctuary Golf Club Foundation, The Sanibel Sisterhood, and Tropical Sunrise.
Team registration deadline is December 6th at 6pm
If you are already registered and would like to create or join a team, please contact Mark at Lin-Mark Sports at linmarksports@linmarksports.com. Please include your name and the team you would like to join or create.
“Register now to build your team and make this year’s JOG N JAM the most competitive and fun race ever.” Winkler said.
