  • It’s essentially splitting a marathon or half marathon distances into sections or ‘legs’ so you cna complete the course as  a team. Each team member runs a specific section of the course before handing over to the next runner, until the final teammate crosses the finish line. Depending on the race, teams will have 2 to 6 runners, with legs ranging in distance depending on how far each runner wants to go. For more information on how it works, take a look at our article on Marathon Relay Races.
