This fall, Warsaw will host not only thousands of individual runners, but also a groundbreaking team competition for amateur athletes. Introducing TeamUp! Everyone!, a brand-new competition format at the 47th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Marathon – one of the largest and most prestigious road races in Central and Eastern Europe.
TeamUp! Everyone! is designed for everyday runners who are passionate about the sport and eager to experience the thrill of competing like professionals. The concept is simple: form a team of 3 or 4 registered marathon participants – regardless of gender or skill level – and take on the challenge together. A total prize pool of 24,000 PLN (approx. €5,600) will be awarded to the top five teams, making this one of the most exciting opportunities for amateur athletes on the marathon calendar.
What makes the competition unique is its fair and inclusive scoring system. All finishing times are converted into points using the official World Athletics scoring tables, which ensures that performances by men and women are evaluated equally. This allows mixed-gender teams to compete on equal footing, and gives every group – no matter their makeup – a fair shot at the podium.
Each team’s final score is calculated based on the three highest individual point totals among its members. This gives teams flexibility in their lineup and strategy while ensuring the overall competition remains exciting and dynamic. It’s a celebration of amateur sport that values effort and teamwork.
Participation in TeamUp! Everyone! is completely free, provided all team members have valid race bibs for the 47th Warsaw Marathon. Registrations are open!
TeamUp! Everyone! is more than just a side event – it’s a forward-thinking project that brings a fresh, team-oriented dimension to mass-participation marathons. It fosters community, introduces a new level of excitement to race day, and sets a new standard for amateur running competitions.
