Ragnar Nation in the Adirondacks

A fall race will give runners the opportunity to experience fall foliage in the Northeast. Vans of runners will start the new course in Saratoga Springs, run along the Hudson and Adirondack Lakes, through the region of Lake George and finish in Lake Placid, New York. Ragnar Relay encourages its participants to break the chains of traditional running races by dressing up, decorating their vans, creating life-long memories and having a blast for 30 plus hours. Each Ragnar Relay course is 180 to 200 miles long, divided into 36 legs. Each participant runs three of the 36 legs, in consecutive order. A slap bracelet acts as the relay baton that runners hand off after their section of the course. This leapfrogging pattern continues to the finish where teams are greeted with a finish line party worthy of such stamina, courage and teamwork. Hundreds of teams across the nation have joined together to take on the Ragnar challenge. Join the overnight running relay series that tests the limits of you and your friends over 200 miles. Registration is now open for Ragnar Relay Adirondacks.
