Since its inception in 2003, the Zilker Relays has captured the hearts and enthusiasm of the Austin running community. Year after year, this iconic race has served as the unofficial kickoff to the Austin racing season, attracting teams eager to test their mettle on the picturesque 10-mile course through historic Zilker Park.The Zilker Relays is not just a race; it's a celebration of the vibrant Austin spirit. Participants form teams of four, with each runner completing a 2.5-mile loop from a central festival/transition area. As runners take turns on the course, the park comes alive with live music, delicious food options, refreshing drinks, and an atmosphere buzzing with energy and camaraderie.
The Zilker Relays not only promotes health and wellness but also supports a worthy cause. All proceeds from the event will benefit Marathon Kids, an Austin-based nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering children through running and physical activity. By participating in the Zilker Relays, runners and sponsors alike contribute to the mission of getting kids moving and fostering a healthier generation.
