Competitors wishing to run on air for the purposes of Lion’s Den qualification or other record-related times will be accommodated on a case-by-case basis. Current sanitation, hygiene and safety protocols are being evaluated and updated to minimize our competitor’s risk and will be deployed during this season’s events. The Health & Safety Committee and Competition Oversight Committees are working diligently to ensure your safety at events. Challenge competition rule 3.2 will continue to be modified in such that competitors will not don the SCBA facepiece and breathe air as part of the individual/team category events. The 2022 season, we hope, will be the final transitional year that the Challenge alters its rules/procedures related to Covid-19 precautions. We would like to provide an update related to individual competitors running on air during this season’s Firefighter Challenge events. Ready to Register?

HOW DO I REGISTER MY TEAM? PLEASE READ SO YOU DO NOT MISS ANY STEPS! (To compete in more than one category, it requires running more than one race, each designated as the specific category for consideration). A tandem team may qualify for multiple categories but must specify beforehand which category they wish to compete in. The members are in full turnout gear, except that facepieces are not worn. Tandem Category – a pair of competitors, each of whom completes roughly half the Course, with the handoff coming before or after the Keiser Forcible Entry Evolution. New and veteran relay teams typically compete in separate brackets. They usually are seeded with their first race at regional events and then enter an elimination bracket based on their seeding time. Relay teams consist of a group of 3 to 5 members, each of whom completes part of the Course before handing a baton over to another member. New Relay Team Category – a group of first-time competitors in the Firefighter Challenge who get to enter into the Challenge 'free of charge'. Veteran Relay Team Category – a group of 3 to 5 members, each of whom completes part of the Course before handing a baton over to another member. If there are less than three members with times due to disqualifications, no-shows, etc., there is no time, and the team will not receive consideration for placement. The team time is composed of the three fastest individual times from team members added together. Team Category – a team is comprised of 3 to 5 members, each of whom runs the Course individually (that is, on-air (as COVID protocols permit), in full turnout gear) and receives an individual time. Individual Category – a competitor running the entire Course, on-air (COVID protocols permitting), in full turnout gear automatically considered for the specific respective age or sex category that is in effect at the event, as well as the open category. Participants can enter in one or more of the following categories:
