*two drink tickets on race day
*custom, gender specific, Zoo Run shirt

The relay is a team of 4 people with each person running a 2.1 mile loop.
The Individual 4 mile is 1 person running 2 loops for a total of 4.2 miles.
HOW DO RELAYS WORK?
Each person on your team will have a race bib with the same number, but a different color. The first person to run will have a white bib. They run their 2.1 mile loop. When getting to the transition area, the second person, with the yellow bib, will receive the baton and run their loop followed by the 3rd and 4th runner. The timing chip is IN THE BATON! Each runner must carry the baton during their run.
STROLLERS:
This event is not a good fit for strollers along the route. There will be fast people coming up from behind you on the trail portion of the event, and the transition area has people turned around in order to accept the hand off of the baton. It’s just too dangerous.
Strollers ARE allowed in the Runners Village.
