What is the TOBACCO ROAD RELAY?
The Tobacco Road Relay is a tour of North Carolina's Triangle, its beautiful cities, historic and protected greenways, single track trails, roads less traveled and roads often traveled. It's a day of challenge, adventure and memories for you and your best friends.
The Tobacco Road Relay is a one day, 75-mile relay-style running race. Teams of 2-6 runners navigate the 75-mile course, which begins in Chapel Hill, runs through Durham to the finish in Raleigh. The course is divided into 12 legs (6 runners = 2 legs/runner), with each leg ranging in distance from 4.2 - 9.6 miles. Teams are permitted one team vehicle to navigate between exchange zones and to carry their inactive runners, food, water, sports drinks, first aid, ice and other needed supplies.
The diverse course showcases the Triangle:
Residential neighborhoods of Chapel Hill
Country roads as the race progresses from Orange County to Durham County
Eno River State Park single track trails
Ellerbee Creek Trail as the race progresses into downtown Durham
Downtown Durham
American Tobacco Trail from downtown Durham to Wake County
White Oak Creek Greenway and Blackcreek Greenway as the race navigates through Apex and Cary
Umstead State Park's dirt Old Reedy Creek Road
Reedy Creek Trail and Rocky Branch Trail to navigate over and under the busy roads of Raleigh
And... cap it all off with the Finish at the Tobacco Road Brewery in downtown Raleigh!
