Bedrace 2009: Wow! What an event the Bedrace 2009 was. Firstly, we need to thank our sponsors for their generosity and tireless efforts to make things happen. And then of course, to my fellow tablers: for all of their hard work and continuing efforts, they are the heroes behind the scenes that are the glue for this event.
Then finally, I must say a big THANK YOU to all of the participants, without you guys this event could never be the huge success that we have come to expect.
I look forward to seeing you at the Bedrace 2010 - The best Bedrace yet! |

On Race Day |
|
|
 One person from each team will have to confirm their registration by completing an indemnity form.
You can then make your way to the grid where the fun begins. Before the race starts, judges will inspect all the beds to decide who will win 'best dressed bed' with some commentating from the band.
The Kyalami Marshalls will then direct the people to their starting positions and the countdown begins.
That representative will then receive:
- Race Fuel (a six-pack sponsored by liquor looneys)
- T-shirt for each team member
- Your bed number
- Certificate of appreciation from Midrand Round Table

About The Bedrace |
|
|
 If you are looking for a different form of team building that all your staff will enjoy, the Bedrace is for you. Not only is it a way to have fun as a company, but you will be giving back to the community.
Each team consists of 5 members, one of which is the patient, whilst the other 4 push the patient on a hospital bed around the race track. Sounds easy, but when you have to overcome the obstacles that are strategically placed around the track.
