Bill,

 

I had looked at this relay a while ago.  It really seems to be interesting; I am not aware of any race like this anywhere in this area.  You normally have to travel long distance to participate in 200 mile relays; actually, I am only aware of one other, the one where Dean Karnazes ran the whole distance by himself (a one-man relay team).  As much fun as it promises to be, I believe it also requires a lot of organizing; it will be a logistical challenge.  And it will not be cheap, either.  You will need a good size RV to accommodate 12 runners for two full days (and nights); plus supplies, plus, plus, plus.

 

At the end, my fall marathon collided with these dates, so I really did not start pursuing it seriously.

 

I wish you good luck.  As I said, it can be a lot of fun.

 

Manfred
