Is there a baton to pass in this race?

You pass a rubber bracelet (like a livestrong bracelet) from runner to runner.

At first glance, I didn't think much of the difference, but there probably IS one.

I am not in the same region as my teammates at this point, though we will run together for awhile before the race. We've run together before, and are used to the baton.

How much practice do we need to get good at passing a BRACELET instead of a baton??

It's incredibly easy. As a runner approaches the exchange point, they stretch the bracelet off their wrist and upon arriving at the actual exchange, they hand it to the next runner who will stretch it on to their wrist (as they start running).
