Relay Iowa - Sioux City, Iowa - Running

The Relay Iowa is a Running race in Sioux City, Iowa consisting of a 339 Mile Relay.

Relay Iowa is the World's Longest Relay Run! Teams of up to 12 participants run 339 miles to cross Iowa over a long weekend. You build your own team and then work together to break down the distance into segments of your choosing. You control the order and distance of runners and can change your plan at any time. Any level runner can participate as long as your overall team pace is about 10 minutes/mile. For example, you may have runners on your team who run 11 minute miles if you also have faster runners who bring the team average to about 10 minutes/mile.

One runner at a time from each team will advance day and night beginning in Sioux City on Friday and ending in Dubuque on Sunday. It is a relay, not a race, encouraging teamwork, camaraderie and fun while testing your determination.
