Logan to Park
City, UT
This is the granddaddy of them all. This is the first race we ever produced
and still the largest.
Teams will party along the backside of the Wasatch Mountains as they pass
seven lakes, several scenic mountain towns, and some of the most breathtaking
mountain scenery the Wasatch has to offer. Whether you're a local or an out-of-towner
this is a side of Utah you have never seen.

WI to St. Paul, MN
Take in the sights and sounds of the Great River Road and
experience the mighty Mississippi River.
Named 1 of the "10 Most Beautiful Places in America" by USA Today,
this 207-mile course winds over hills, atop towering bluffs and through charming
19th-century river towns. Steady and swift, the Mississippi makes for a fine
running partner.
AUGUST
24 - 25, 2007
Go
on, paint your face. Trick out your van. Stay up all night. And rock out to
live bands all along the way. Because Ragnar Relays are the wildest kind of
races you’ll ever run.
How does it work?
It’s
really quite simple. Pick one of our 3 amazing races. Get a bunch of friends
together (or we can help you find team members who’ll quickly become your
friends) and start running. Okay, there’s a tiny bit more to it. Your relay
team will consist of 12 members. During the relay, each team member runs three
legs, each leg ranging between 3 – 8 miles and varying in difficulty. This
unique relay format results in a series of accessible races for less intense
runners and yet challenging enough for the most competitive.
How do runners get from one exchange to the next?
Each
team is responsible for providing two support vehicles, with six runners in
each vehicle. The first vehicle will drop off the first runner, drive ahead
a few miles, cheer on the runner, and provide them with water, snacks and
plenty of love. That vehicle will then drive ahead to the first exchange point
to drop off the second runner, and pick up the first runner when that leg
is complete. They will repeat this pattern for six legs until they hand off
to their second vehicle. This “leapfrogging” pattern will continue all the
way to finish.
What is the Ragnar Relay Series?
With relay races in Arizona, Minnesota/Wisconsin, and Utah, the Ragnar Relay
Series has quickly become the largest overnight relay series in the nation.
In the Ragnar Relay Series every element from the route, to the mapping, to
the t-shirts, comes together to provide the ultimate blend of athletic achievement
and social enjoyment. We have searched all over the country for the best relay
routes possible. We are very proud of the mountain route of the Wasatch Back,
the river route of the Great River, and the desert route of the Del Sol.
All of our events are simulated before-hand using Automod Simulation Software.
This software simulates race conditions, enabling us to provide the best possible
logistics. All our events provide live music along the course, themed exchanges,
and much more.
