Event Details
An Ekiden relay is a long-distance team running event, and yes, it comes with a legendary accessory: the Tasuki sash. Runners pass it along to symbolize teamwork.
Ekidens can be any distance, but in our version, each team will collectively cover the distance of a marathon. Don’t panic! You’re sharing the load, so it goes by fast.
How it works
Each team has 6 runners:
2 people run 10K
3 people run 5K
1 person runs 7.2K
Start times
7:00 p.m. – Your two 10K runners start
7:05 p.m. – Your three 5K runners start
The handoff magic
The first 5K runner on your team to finish will tag your 7.2K runner, who will wear the Tasuki sash (because this runner is most likely your grand finale finisher)!
We’ll provide the sash, plus a decorating station so you can personalize it and make it fabulously team-branded.
