Jellyfish, hello, The extra miles were massaged into the course at at few places: 1. Legs?16, 17 and 18 were modified to include two larger parking lots (as...
I am new to the MC200. I thought it would be a great way to get back into exercise...but I don't know how to train for it. Can someone guide me to a good...
I don't think there is a training program specifically for a relay. I (and I think others) who are doing the regular relay (as opposed to the ultra) train as...
If you now train 3 times a week, 5-7 miles, with some hills, you are close to ready. The tough part is self-control. You need to pace over a 48-hour period ...
On behalf of the few ultra teams, you 12 member teams have it made...we on the other hand have to run six legs each, and after last year's 88 degrees and 88%...
Nicole-I have done 2 of these 200 Mile events, including the MC200 last year. I would suggest that you actually try running, at least once a month, twice in...
Thank you for the responses and websites. It is all very helpful!!! I am sure I will be back in a couple of weeks asking how to train my self control:) Thank...
Nicole,  Initially our team was training for a 10 - 12 person team. When it was time to start the race, we only had 6 runners, so we needed up running an...
... Hi Nicole & congratulations on accepting the challenge of running at least 3 times in ~24 hours. www.ragnarrelay.com is home for several other relays. They...
Hi there, I am interested in running this relay if there's a team thats looking for a woman runner. I run about a 11 to 12 min mile pace, which is slow I...
I was told some people got lost last year. I am wondering why each team is not forced to have a garmin with the route traced at the belt. Is there a reason why...
Most running-GPSs don't have a route-following capability, and not all routes are straight. You are supposed to carry a phone and a copy of the map for the leg...
I never had any real issues while running getting lost. I carried a paper map as Russ suggested below and thought the course was well marked. I wouldn't want...
I am in the process of organizing two teams for the MC200. We need 3 more runners to complete our teams! We are a mix of people who are regular runners and...

Hi Sabrina, Try posting on our facebook page too: "Madison-Chicago 200 Relay". I'm just getting it off the ground, but I hope it might generate some recruiting...
Tom, Hope all is well with you. How many teams are you at now as I want to make sure we are able to get in again. I hope to have ours in NLT mid Feb. Mark...
Hi I'm from Milwaukee, and am looking for a team. If someone has a need for runners, please let me know. My latest race was the Lakefron Marathon last October...

We ran this event last year and had a great time. This year we have entered two teams - one mixed and one Ultra team but need to make some roster changes. I...
To make updates to your roster after registration through Active.com, you will just need to submit a revised roster form that the RD's will make available for...

I'm looking at getting a (first time) group together for 2010, and made some calls about renting a large van. This gets pricey. Vans go for $130/day, plus...
Yeah, they're pretty expensive, right? Try renting 2 vans if you have a 12-person team. We have 2 x 12-person caravans this year for the first time after using...
