The relay brings team sport to what has notoriously been an individual pursuit. Running! The focus is on camaraderie and fun rather that setting a personal best. There are competitors... and that is welcome! There are challenges to all runners... and that is part of the fun! It is the most fun you will ever have running!

Here's the Drill!

• Odyssey Relay Run Adventures are best suited for teams of 12 runners; each runner runs 3 legs of the 36 segment course.
• Teams with fewer than 12 runners may participate; they will simply need to run more miles!
• It's recommended that the number of runners can be divided into 36 without a remainder.
• What if you don't have 11 friends ready to join you...not a problem! You may sign up your team with fewer than 12 and add the rest as they join!
• If you are an individual seeking a team, or a team seeking individuals, please post a note on the Forums tab to the left of the page.  You may also visit us on Facebook and post your need there.

Each team signs up in one of the following divisions and categories:

Divisions:

• Open - All runners must be 18 or older
• Masters - All runners must be 40 or older
• Corporate/Military - All runners must be employed by (or retirees of) the same company or be members of the military

Categories:

• Men - Zero to five women
• Mixed - Six to eleven women
• Women - 12 women

Prizes are awarded to the top team in each division and category. To be eligible for division winning prizes, runners must stay in order, e.g. the runner who runs leg no. 1 must also run legs 13 and 25.

Because this is a relay race, the idea of which is to have fun, prizes will also be awarded to the teams with the "best" team name, "best" costumes, and "best" decorated vans. We pick the "best" and, trust us, our decision is final!
