Marathon Relay
The marathon relay race is held each April as part of the Family Fitness Weekend. Relay teams are comprised of four members, running or walking approximately six miles each, to complete a full 26.2 marathon. The marathon relay race continues to increase in popularity each year with close to 300 teams participating in 2008. The race is especially appealing to family, friends, co-workers and organizations that join together to compete as one. Marathon Relay divisions include: women, men, co-ed corporate and co-ed family & friends and the Battle of the Badges competition between area police and firefighters.
The marathon relay race is also a great way for newcomers to endurance competition to get started, while enjoying the team aspect. Participants who have completed their relay leg of the course, all join the final team member near the finish line so they can cross the line together.
The 2008 GO! St. Louis Marathon Relay was sponsored by the Lockton Companies.
