The Ragnar Relay Race series, is a 200 mile team road race. Yes 200 miles. The race is competed with a max of 12 members per team with 36 different legs. Each member will end up running approximately 15 miles a piece split pretty evenly over each individual leg.
Linked Charities
A portion of each race benefits local charities but they do not have one major sponsor.
Training Needs
The needs for this race are similar to that of a half or full marathon, essentially get up and run a lot. Perhaps not at 13 miles a clip but pretty close.
Team Size
In order to participate in this event I would need to gather up 11 teammates. 11 people willing to run at minimum 14 miles in 24 hours.
Possible Ragnars for Me to Participate In
2012 dates are not yet set, but New England (New Haven to Boston) was run in May of 2011. Same goes for New York (Bethel to Westchester). DC is being run in September.
