Your guide to registration

The Maritime Mountain Race is our very first race taking place in some of Europe’s most stunning scenery. We would love for you to take part in our event, raising funds for seafarers’ welfare across the globe.

As many of you know, seafarers frequently operate in perilous conditions, facing isolation, exhaustion, and both mental and physical health challenges, as well as the looming dangers of abandonment, shipwreck, and piracy. Funds raised from this event will enable us to provide more vital welfare support across the world.

How do I register to take part?

Our online event platform makes it simple to register to take part. Teams are formed of three participants. One of the participants is the Team Captain, and this status can be passed between any of the participants.

Whether you’re the first to register your team, or you’re joining a team that has already been registered, you’ll need to Register as a participant first.

This will take you through an intuitive process, covering the below steps:

1. Visit the registration screen of the platform.
2. Enter your email address, ensuring this is correct, as well as your full name, job title, and set up a new password, ensuring the password you choose is not used elsewhere for security. Read and ensure you understand the Privacy Policy, and head to the next step.
3. An email will be sent to your inbox to verify your email address is correct. Simply enter the six-digit code that is sent to your inbox on the next screen. This email can take a couple of minutes to arrive. If you choose ‘Don’t ask again on this device’, you won’t need to enter a code next time you log in.
4. Choose between joining an existing team, or creating a new team. To join an existing team, scroll down on the list of teams and select one, before heading to the next step. You will then be taken to the dashboard, where you can begin to complete further details.
5. If your team isn’t shown in the list, and you’d like to create a new team, choose this option.
6. On the next screen, enter a name for your team, and your company name. Please ensure your team name and company name are correct, however if you don’t know any of the following information, it can be skipped, or amended later from within the platform.
7. A logo can be uploaded, or you can enter the details of a member of your marketing team, which the platform can request this from. They’ll be sent an email to upload these assets for you.
8. Choose which race you’d like to enter (hiking or running), and choose a fundraising target in USD which should be above US$5,000.
9. On the next screen, read the two statements and tick those that you agree to, and head to the next step.
10. Arrange payment (see below), before reviewing (and editing again at this point if needed), and finally submitting your information. You will then be taken to the dashboard, where you can begin to complete further details.

If you are the first to create a team, you’re automatically the team captain. At any point you can transfer this status to another member of your team.

Joining a team

If your team has already been created by your team captain, you’ll need to register as a participant. Another member of your team cannot invite you to join. Once you’ve registered and chosen your team your team captain will be sent an email to approve your request to join their team. Once they have completed this, you’ll receive an email and you’ll be able to access your team and accommodation details.

What are the costs, and how do I make payment?

The event fee is per team of three people, rather than per participant. The fee is €4,900, and this will be paid directly to The Mission to Seafarers, the event organisers.

As you are registering your team for the first time (see above), you are presented with the cost, and given the choice of how you’d like to pay. If you need to come back to this, you can log in at any time, and make payment later from within the platform.

• If you choose to pay via Card, you can use a Debit or Credit card, and will be taken to a secure online payment system to continue.
• If you choose to pay via Bank Transfer, you will be presented with the bank details needed to make your transfer, along with a unique reference number to use. It’s important to use this reference number when you make this transaction, as this will automatically register your registration fee as paid within the platform once it is received. These details will also be emailed to you, in case you need to pass these on.

How do I add/update all of my personal details?

Once you’re registered (see above), you’ll be taken into your account. You can log in and log out at any time. Once you’re logged in, you can choose ‘Details’ and view your personal information across several screens, completing all of the fields. At any point these can be amended.

How do I add/update all of my team’s details?

Once you’re registered (see above), you’ll be taken into your account. You can log in and log out at any time. Once you’re logged in, you can choose ‘Team’ and view your team information across several screens, completing all of the fields. At any point these can be amended.

How do I change who is team captain?
