2-Person Half Marathon (13.1M) & 5-Person Marathon (26.2M)
The concept is simple and a lot of fun: a half or full marathon relay, run by teams of runners. This race is perfect for team building or for those wishing to participate in race weekend at a shorter distance! Take part in either our 2-person Half Marathon Relay or our 5-person Marathon Relay both of which are sure to provide a fun experience for friends, family and/or co-workers!
This half marathon relay option will follow the half marathon course and be split into two legs with distances of approximately 7 and 6 miles each. Runner one will start at Dallas City Hall Plaza and run to Relay Exchange #1 located at Harvard Ave. & Cole Ave. From there, runner two will take over and run the remainder of the half marathon course. Please see the course map below for further details.
This full marathon relay option will follow the marathon course and offers five relay legs with varying distances between 3 and 7 miles. Runner one will start at Dallas City Hall Plaza and then run to the first exchange point at Harvard Ave. & Cole Ave. From here, the next relay team member will start running and then other team members will start from their respective exchange points once their teammate has completed their individual leg. Please note, each relay runner is responsible for getting to their respective exchange point on race morning. For a breakdown of distances and locations of each exchange point, please click on the course map below.
