The 2026 NZ Road Relay Championships is the biggest team race on the calendar. This relay race will see you and your crew running through the country roads, handing off relay batons, cheering out of van windows, and celebrating together at the end of the journey.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A road relay is a team race where 4–7 people each run one leg of the course. Distances range from 4km to 12km, with a mix of climbs, flats, and fast descents. Between legs, teams leapfrog in vans, tag in at changeovers, and cheer each other along the way. It’s fast, it’s fun, and it’s unlike anything else in running.
