How
can my company enter?
On this web site, consult the Series schedule and locate the city
closest to your office. Then click on that link and you will find
a contact number for more information along with downloadable registration
forms for that particular date. Unless otherwise noted, you can
enter as many JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge® events
as you like and your entire company is eligible to participate,
as long as you and your teammates have met the eligibility requirements.
Can
I sign up as an individual?
No. The Corporate Challenge is a team event, and you must have a
minimum of two men and two women; or four men; or four women; to
be able to field a team.
Where
are my forms this year?
For the 2004 Series year, all Corporate Challenge registration
forms are available exclusively online at http://www.jpmorganchasecc.com.
Find your city on the Series Schedule prominently displayed on
the web site’s home page. Click on that link and, within
approximately four months of your event, you will find event
information and a link to all of the registration materials,
which will be available to download. You also may go any page
in this site, position your mouse over the word "Registration" in
the top banner, and click on the name of your city in the list
that drops down. If you are a returning Company Captain, you
will receive an informational packet, but you must visit http://www.jpmorganchasecc.com
to secure your registration forms.
Are
walkers allowed?
Absolutely. The Corporate Challenge is an event for all comers –
racers, joggers and walkers. For safety purposes, however, baby
strollers (and baby joggers) and non-service dogs are not allowed
on the race course.
What
are the eligibility requirements?
There are detailed eligibility requirements listed in the Company
Captain application folder and provided on the registration page
for each city on this web site. Topline, however, our event
is open to all employees of corporations, businesses and financial
institutions, just as long as they work 25 hours per week and have
been employed by the company for at least three months prior to
race night.
I
work in Chicago? Can I run in your New York Event too?
Sure, as long as you meet the team eligibility requirements. You
can enter any Corporate Challenge event in the country in which
you work.
Who
is the beneficiary of this event?
During the 2004 JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge Series, JPMorgan
Chase donated more than $350,000 to not-for-profit organizations
throughout the Series cities. You can access a chart that lists
the specific beneficiary in each city by clicking
here.
Can
my organization be a beneficiary?
If your organization is interested in being considered as a beneficiary,
please contact us at series-info@jpmorganchasecc.com.
Please note the event you are interested in and tell us a little
about your organization.
It's
very hot/raining/snowing (etc.), is the race on?
The JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge is, normally, a rain or
shine event. We have had three weather-related cancellations in
27 years of operation. However, there have been instances where
we have turned off the time clocks and encouraged all participants
to sit out the event or, if they must participate, go well below
their regular training pace. If weather affects the Corporate
Challenge on race day, we will announce it on this web site promptly.
Bookmark http://www.jpmorganchasecc.com
and check back regularly.
Where
can I park/how can I get around on race night?
Click on your city’s link on the home page of this web site.
You’ll find traffic information (street closings, restrictions),
parking details and driving directions clearly listed.
How
are the results compiled?
We score three categories – Men’s Team (four men), Women’s
Team (four women), Mixed Team (two men, two women). It is solely
up to the Company Captain to determine what participants go on which
teams after the runners have turned in their times that evening.
You cannot list an employee on two separate scorecards.
When
will the team results be ready?
Normally, complete team results from a particular city will be on
this web site within one week following the completion of the event.
Thank you for your patience with this, as every entrant’s
eligibility requirements must be screened.
There
is a problem with the results. How can it be fixed?
If you feel there is a discrepancy in the results, please contact
us at series-info@jpmorganchasecc.com.
We will investigate immediately and get back to you.
Why
do you only report the top five or six individual finishers?
The JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge is a team event, promoting
corporate fitness and camaraderie. As such, we put the almost complete
focus on teams rather than individuals.
Our
team has
qualified for the JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge Championship
in New York. What's next?
Congratulations. You will be contacted directly by our Championship
Race Coordinator. and will receive all the pertinent information
your team will need for the event. You should receive an entry packet
one month before the event. If not, please contact us at series-info@jpmorganchasecc.com.
Can
my company enter the T-shirt contest?
We’d love it, and so will your employees. You will find the
necessary forms and instructions on this web site. Start by going
to the Registration page for your city.
