Discover the teamwork and competitive spirit of the Ekiden. This relay race will inspire, motivate and test you as you prepare to compete against teams in our community. 2023 Ekiden will go back to its original format in 2021. You will be put into a lottery and be randomly assigned in a team of total of 4 participants. You'll get to meet new runners or team up with old runners you already knew. Each of you will then complete a distance between 5K and 6 K, totaling the half marathon distance. In teams of 4 , each runner will complete one of the 4 stages of 5k, 5k, 5k, 6k, in order, totaling the distance of a half marathon. Not just a test of speed, but also of tactics, as you determine who is best suited to complete each leg. Team Lottery will be done 3 days before race day. Within those three days you will have to meet with your new team members and strategize! It will be so much fun!
