Temple to Temple Relay
September 28, 2013
The Temple to Temple Relay starts at the church immediately west of the Rexburg Temple and follows paths and roads to the church immediately south of the Idaho Falls Temple. This course totals 37 miles. The relay is open to all Brigham Young University-Idaho students, employees, and their dependants. BYU-Idaho alumni are also welcome. Team captains are responsible to pass on significant relay information to team members. Students and employees form their own 2- to 8-person relay teams. In Fall 2012, 91 teams and 673 students, employees, and alumni participated.
The cost per participant is $10 for those registering by August 9, 2013. From Aug. 10-Sep. 24, the fee is $12. Entry fees are non-refundable. Registering before Aug. 9, 2013 is strongly encouraged. Day-of-race registration, though strongly discouraged, will be accepted between 6:15-6:45 a.m. at the Check-in Table. Day-of-race entry fees are $25 per person. Register here.

3. Team T-shirt color
4. Names of team members
5. T-shirt sizes of team members
6. Order in which team members will run

Team Sizes
Standard Teams - 8 Runners
Standard teams are made up of eight runners. Each member of the team completes one leg of the relay. Legs vary in distance from 2.7 to 7.2 miles, with the average distance being 4.5 miles.
Ultra Teams - 4 Runners
Ultra teams are made up of four runners. Each member of the team completes any two legs of the relay.
Duo Teams - 2 Runners
Duo teams are made up of two runners. Each member of the team completes any four legs of the relay.
Solo - 1 Runner
Solo runners must meet strict prerequisites in order to run. Please contact the race advisor for details.
Note: Standard and Ultra teams with fewer runners will be allowed to participate. In such cases, one or more team members run more legs to make up the difference.
Divisions
There are three divisions in each category: Men's, Women's, Mixed. To qualify for the Mixed division, teams must have at least half the relay legs run by women. To be in the Women's division, teams must be all women.
Volunteers
Dozens of volunteers are needed to help the day of the Relay. Volunteers can sign up by emailing templerelay@byui.edu before Sep. 24, 2013. They will be given assignments of approximately 4-6 hours to fulfill the day of the race. Race volunteers will meet at the church by the Rexburg Temple, then be driven in University vehicles to their assigned stations. The Relay would not be possible without the help of many volunteers. Volunteers will receive a race t-shirt.
