CORPORATE TEAM SPONSOR

Corporate sponsors choose to cover all or part of their employee’s registration costs. Sponsoring your employees is easy; we provide you with a discount code that you distribute to your employees, they use the code when they register, and we track registrations and invoice you the cost of your employees’ registration. Corporate sponsor logos are promoted on the race website and in social media, and additional opportunities for engagement and promotion are available.
