  Team Challenge

Participation in the Corporate and Open Team Challenge is available and is an important part of the event's financial success. Your friends, family and co-workers will be glad to step out against child abuse by forming a team of at least three people with at least one female participant.

Team Goal
Each team member is encouraged to donate a minimum of $10 above the registration fee. Because the Wrigley Start Early Run is a pledge run and walk, the ideal team goal is to raise an average of $100 per person.

Team Registration
  • Teams must be registered.
  • Each individual team member also must Register.
  • You can also pre-register your team at one of our pre-registration sites the week before the event.
  • On-site registration will be available for teams on the day of the run if your team cannot pre-register in advance. You must pre-register before the day of the event to be chip-timed. No chip-timed registrations will be accepted on race day.
