The legs of the relay will NOT be equal distance. Approximate distances and tentative exchange point locations:

Relay Legs of varying distance and difficulty give teams plenty of opportunity to strategize. Information to consider:

Leg 2 is the longest.

Leg 3 is the most scenic and the most hilly. Two miles of this leg are in Wildwood Lake Park. Click Here for elevation profile.

  Chip Timing:

Every Relay Team will receive one Timing Chip and Velcro Ankle Band. The chip must be passed from one runner to the next at the Relay Exchange Points. The chip must be secured around the runner's ankle to activate when crossing each of the Timing Mats. If the chip is in your hand or pocket, it will not activate, and if your Team's chip does not activate at every mat - your team will NOT be eligible for an award.

Every Team you compete against will have to take the time to secure the ankle chip. All teams will be equal in this regard.

Chip must be removed by final runner at the finish line and given to Race Volunteer. If the chip is not returned at the finish line, it must be mailed to race officials or a fee of $25 will be charged.

  Teams:

One 1st place award per category. Only one award to a Team.

  Amenities:

Each Relay Team member will receive a race shirt and all of the amenities of the race - Cytomax, food, mylar blanket, water, and option to receive a post race massage. Relay Team members will NOT receive marathon medals. Medals are awarded to runners who complete the entire 26.2 miles.
