These rules can be changed by the RISE Management with prior information to team captains. There are 3 separate categories and separate teams will be formed for participants in each category.
RISE Warriors - is for experience runners + high mileage over the 3 months duration of the challenge. These would mostly be regular runners who are already used to long runs and are looking to have more mileage to prepare for an upcoming event, TMM 42 kms for example. Warriors will have separate teams
RISE Challengers - is for moderate runners, joggers, walkers , new runners. Those registering as Challengers have 2 options:
Option 1 - Opt for only running - comfortable mileage over the course of the challenge - These would mostly be new runners who have just started or wanting to start, those who are coming back from a break and wanting to get back on track and those who run occasionally but want to get into the habit of running regularly. These participants will gain points for team only based on their running activities.
Option 2 - Opt for running + cycling - comfortable mileage over the course of the challenge - like in option 1 these would also be runners who have just started, coming from break etc. but they would also like to include cycling as part of their training. These participants will gain points for team based on their running as well as cycling activities. Running is a compulsory activity for these participants. Cycling is an additional cross training option provided to these participants.
RISE Challengers will have separate team and each team will have mix of option 1 + option 2 participants
