Marathon Relay - Team Captain to set up a brand new Relay Team Closed

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 04 2026. Relay Team Captains can register the team name and any or all team members in one transaction. If not all team members are registered in the first transaction, team captain will be contacted with instructions for additional team members to register. Relay participants run the marathon route which is divided into 8 legs. You need a minimum of two team members and a maximum of eight. A timing chip, attached to a belt serves as the team’s baton and is passed between team members in the designated exchange zones. All eight legs must be completed. The team determines who runs which leg. If you have less than eight members, one or more members will need to run multiple legs. Each team requires a team name and a team captain, who will help you coordinate the legs.
