MARATHON RELAY
The Marathon Relay occurs on the same day as the Milton Keynes Marathon. It pits teams of four runners (adults only 17+) against each other, each competitor running a leg of approximately 10km.
The relay event is open to businesses, charities, clubs, or even groups of friends and is characterised by a strong element of friendly competition. Teams compete to be seen as the fittest or the fastest. These titles represent an enviable PR title and bragging rights that last a year.
This opportunity does not come around every day and should not be missed. The team captain will need to collect the race bibs on the morning of the race.
Team changes can be made online until midnight on the 21st of April. Please email us if you need us to cancel a team member so you can recruit someone else. You can then report any further team changes to the Relay HQ on race day. Team members can run in any order, but the team bibs must be used in sequences A, B, C, and D.
HALF MARATHON
The MK Half Marathon is a popular, fast, scenic AIMS-certified race with BARR Gold accreditation for outstanding race management. Along the course, you’ll see beautiful lakes, parks, and picturesque villages and be treated with the highest level of course support. So what are you waiting for?
