Company Captain Race Day Information
Shanghai
Thursday 23 October 2014 • 4.30pm
Thank you for taking the time to co-ordinate your team for the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge®. Please read through
the information below and share it with your runners. Please ensure that your runners read the Runner Information
memo and receive the proper race number.
Runner Information
Please review the following items available on the website: Runner Information Memo, Safety Bulletin, Series Rules,
and course and site maps.
Race Numbers
These are sent to you in the race pack. Ensure that each runner receives the correct number. DO NOT REASSIGN
NUMBERS TO YOUR RUNNERS! Runners who are wearing the wrong number risk disqualification for themselves and
their entire team.
Race Timing
The race will be timed using the ChronoTrack B-Tag timing system. Each race number contains a transponder (timing
chip) which is read by an antenna located in a mat on the ground at the start and finish lines. Runners’ times will be
recorded beginning when they cross the start mat and ending when they cross the finish mat. It is important that
runners wear the race number pinned in all four corners, unwrinkled, and uncovered, to insure recording an accurate
time.
All recorded times will be listed in the race results on the jpmorgan.com/cc website. B-tags are disposable and do not
need to be returned. Recycling bins will be available near the finish for disposal of race numbers/B-tags.
The Start
The race start is in the Xuhui Riverside Green Space. This is a voluntary seeded event, which means that participants
should line up according to their expected running time. Fast runners with red bibs should follow the yellow signs at
the form up area to the front of the start. Runners and joggers should line up behind the runners with red bibs, and
walkers should line up at the rear of the field. This will ensure that the race runs smoothly and will be a more enjoyable
experience for all.
Clothing Storage
A baggage deposit will be available near the start. Please ensure all valuables are removed prior to checking in
baggage. Organisers will not be held responsible for any lost items.
Public Catering
There will be public catering available on-site. You can pre-order food and beverage vouchers for your team that can
be exchanged at the public stalls. Please contact the race coordinator at 400 8212 585 for more information.
Company Meeting Place
Company captains should designate a team gathering area for their participants after the race and notify their
teammates of this location. Gear check, hospitality tents and gathering areas will all be located at Xuhui Riverside
Green Space.
Race Day Notes
Check the website, www.jpmorgan.com/cc, on race day for important messages to runners. Remind your runners to

post is available in the hospitality village for minor injuries. Please instruct your runners to stop running and seek
medical assistance if they do not feel well. See the Safety Bulletin for additional information.
