Rules | Idiotarod 2008 Toronto

Your entire team needs to be at each checkpoint to be timed.
Teams are 4-6 people.
All team members need to be touching (or attached) to the cart at all times. One ‘musher’ is allowed.
Only feet allowed. No bikes, engines, jets, or other assistive devices. No use of the TTC, cabs, etc. during the race.
Any size cart is fine as long as it’s not a toy or child’s cart.
Do not cause physical harm to anyone.
The cart must be identifiable as a cart. If you’ve cut your cart and reassembled it as a something else then that’s not cool. Neat, but you won’t be a winner.

Have fun.

Really there aren’t that many rules and the only thing that happens if you break any of the rules, you can’t win. These are here just so we have something like a common understanding about the basics of the Idiotarod.

Decorate your cart. This isn’t a requirement, but it makes it more insane. Incorporate your cart however you want. You can even put skis on the bottom instead of wheels. You never know, it could snow.
Be smart and have fun. Do what you like and dress how you want, just remember that we’re all made of skin with goo inside. If you’re sitting in the cart wear a helmet and don’t put other people in danger.
Interfering with other teams. Feel free to try to slow down other teams with objects like water balloons or silly string, but be cool with it. Don’t be an asshole. We want everyone to have fun.
