Run with the best

The Dick Pond Athletics Fast Track Racing Team offers the Chicago area running community an opportunity to train and race with an award winning racing team.  Membership on our team is free and is open to all ages and ability levels.  Road racing is an integral part of who we are.  There are 27 races on our Team Race schedule this year.  We encourage our members to make it out to as many races as they can.

Our 27 Team Races consist of all 16 CARA Runners Choice Series races and 11 non-circuit races. All Team Races are listed on the Team Race page (opens in a new window).

7-Race Requirement

• Competing in a minimum of 7 Team Races throughout the year is a requirement for members of the Dick Pond Fast Track Racing Team.
• With the exception of USATF certified marathons, races outside of our Team Race schedule are not included.
• Our Team's race singlet (see below) is required to be worn in Team races in order have the race count towards your Team Race quota and to qualify for Team prize money.
• We keep track of the everyone's race results to determine performance awards. Our Sponsors review our records to ensure that members are compliant with our sponsorship agreements.
• Prize money will be forfeited if you have not met the 7-race quota at the end-of-the year. Prize money is paid out by our sponsors at the conclusion of the race schedule.
• Even if you do not plan on competing for prize money, registering and running in less than the required number races would cause serious strain between the Team and our sponsors!
• If you do not plan to meet this 7-race requirement, please do not apply for membership on the Dick Pond Fast Track Racing Team!

Race Singlets

• New 2012 Saucony racing team singlets (ViZi-PRO pink for the ladies and ViZi-PRO orange for the guys) will be available at a uniform pick-up in early March.
• There is a mandatory $20 singlet deposit, due at uniform pickup
• The $20 fee will be 100% refunded at the end of the year if the team member completed the required minimum of 7 team races.
• There will be no prorated refunds. However, any extenuating circumstances will be determined on a case-by-case basis. i.e. Injury, etc...

Additional Membership Requirements

• You cannot be on the roster of any other CARA Circuit team if you wish to be a member of Fast Track.
• Wearing Saucony shoes in Team races is strongly encouraged, but not required. They are required, however, for the Team's 16 Ambassadors.
