FAQs
What Makes a Good 5k Team Name?
A killer 5k team name packs a punch! It’s catchy, reflects your crew’s vibe, and maybe even gets a chuckle. Think of wordplay, inside jokes, or a nod to your shared goal.
Can We Change Our Team Name After Registration?
It’s not set in stone, but don’t bank on it! Most races lock in names after registration for logistical reasons. If you’ve had a stroke of genius, reach out to the organizers ASAP. They might bend the rules if you catch ’em before the t-shirts are printed.
Should Our 5k Team Name Match Our Costumes or Theme?
That’s next-level coordination! It’s not a must, but it’ll turn heads. Picture “The Banana Bunch” sprinting by in yellow onesies.
