Who Can Take Part in TEAM UP! Everyone?
Anyone registered for the Warsaw Marathon who forms a group of 3 or 4 runners interested in creating a team.
Can teams consist of only men or only women?
Yes. All finish times are converted into points using the World Athletics scoring tables, which enable fair competition regardless of gender.
Example:
Runner 1 from Team X – net time: 2:12:30 – 1,117 pts
Runner 2 from Team X – net time: 2:13:30 – 1,100 pts
Runner 3 (female) from Team X – net time: 2:32:00 – 1,113 pts
Runner 4 (female) from Team X – net time: 2:33:00 – 1,103 pts
The final team result is based on the top 3 scores:
1,117 + 1,113 + 1,103 = 3,333 points
Is this the same as a Marathon Relay?
No! In a relay, each runner completes only part of the distance. In TEAM UP!, every runner completes the full 42.195 km.
Do I need a racing license to participate in TEAM UP! Everyone?
No. The competition is open to amateur runners, just like the individual marathon classification.
What are the prizes in TEAM UP! Everyone?
The top 5 teams receive cash prizes. You can find the full prize breakdown here:

Are teams assigned by the organizer?
No. Everything is in the runners’ hands (or legs!). Runners form their own teams of 3 or 4 people and register them in the team classification.
How do I register?
First, you must register as an individual for the 47th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Marathon and receive a bib number.
After that, you’ll find a dedicated TEAM UP! Everyone registration module in your runner’s panel.
Is the team competition only for teams from Poland?
No. We welcome runners from all over the world. You don’t have to form a “national team”—feel free to team up with runners from other countries.
If our team registers for TEAM UP! Everyone, how exactly are the results calculated?
Each runner’s net time is converted into points using the World Athletics scoring tables, ensuring fair comparison regardless of team composition.
Only the three highest-scoring team members are counted toward the final result.
For example:
Runner 1 – 2:12:30 – 1,117 pts
Runner 2 – 2:13:30 – 1,100 pts
Runner 3 – 2:32:00 – 1,113 pts
Runner 4 – 2:33:00 – 1,103 pts
Final team score: 1,117 + 1,113 + 1,103 = 3,333 points
What if not all team members finish the marathon?
At least three members must finish the marathon for the team to be officially classified.
Are runners in TEAM UP! Everyone also included in the individual classification?
Absolutely. Team participation does not affect the individual results. You can compete for individual rankings, age group awards, and more while also being part of a team.
Can I race with a teammate who represents Russia?
No.
Can runners from Belarus participate?
Only if they are refugees and have officially expressed opposition to their country’s current political regime.
