What People are Saying

For four years now I have thoroughly enjoyed every ounce of effort your entire team has put into RTY! What an amazing concept all 7 members of our two teams have shared with many between the Amerithon and all the RTYs!

How does a team work?

You can divide the miles however you want! Each team member registers individually, then you form your team inside our online tracker.

The tracker allows you to log miles individually AND as a team!

This graphic gives you an example of the average miles needed by each person, depending on the size of your team.
