Team relay event over varied distances on the beautiful trails at Anglesea
Ever wanted to compete in a marathon but felt you were not quite up to it? Ekiden is a Japanese term which
generally refers to a long-distance relay running race, typically conducted on roads. An Ekiden Relay is commonly
held over the marathon distance of 42.195km with teams of runners completing legs of varying distances. The
popular Ekiden Relay returns to the XCR calendar in 2016 and will take place on Victoria’s iconic Surf Coast in
Anglesea.
