Twice the people per slot
Sixty teams means a hundred and twenty athletes in your gym, and that many people discovering your place.
Hybrid racing
Pairs, the format that fills a gym
Almost every simulation runs in pairs. That is not an accident.
In pairs the two team mates alternate on the work blocks and usually run together. The effort is split, the format becomes reachable for athletes who would never enter solo, and every entry brings two people into your gym. It is the strongest way to fill a first edition, and the simplest to manage on the leaderboard side.
What to keep in mind
Mixed categories handled
Male male, female female, mixed. Three categories, three leaderboards, no manual sorting.
One transponder per team
Both team mates stay together on course, so one is enough. That halves the timing cost.
Free relay rules
You decide whether the switch is imposed mid station or left to the team. Both are configurable.
Less intimidating
Many athletes do their first hybrid race in pairs. It is your gateway to solo entries the following year.
