The Zilker Relays is a 10 mile event. Teams are comprised of 4 runners, each running approximately 2.5 mile loops from one central festival/transition area. The team concept of the Zilker Relays is not unique, but the combination of a relay, festival home base, drinks and music, make this experience a favorite for runners of all calibers and ages. You don't have to train like a marathoner for this

Some races are about the clock.
Zilker has always been about the smile.

Every mile has the power to make a difference.
We're excited to welcome We Are Blood to Zilker Relays. They'll be onsite encouraging runners to keep that blood pumping and helping anyone interested schedule a future blood donation.
It's one more way our running community can make a positive impact.

Sticker reveal.
This year's Zilker Relays sticker is here—and yes, we fully expect to start seeing these on water bottles all over Austin.
Want one?
On race night, you'll be able to grab one from our sponsors throughout the event. Stop by, say hi, thank them for helping make Zilker happen, and add a little Run. Fun. Repeat. to wherever you stick things.
Now the important question: where are you putting yours?

SweatPals does more than power registration for Zilker Relays—they're also our Signature Wall Sponsor.
On race day, stop by, grab a marker, and leave your mark. Whether it's a goal, a memory, a thank-you to your teammates, or a message to the running community, we'd love to see what you have to say.
What will you leave on the wall?

Win the race. Win the party.
Our friends at .austin aren't just our Trophy Sponsor this year—they're making sure there's something worth competing for after the running is done, too.
Run fast enough and you might take home a Zilker Relays trophy.
Bring the right team energy and you might just win the party.
Thanks, PINS Mechanical Co., for helping us celebrate both kinds of champions.

The best part of Zilker Relays isn't just the running.
It's seeing people you haven't seen in a while.

Zilker 🤝 Zilker
It just makes sense.
Zilker Relays. Zilker Brewing. One Friday night in Zilker Park.
We're pretty sure this is what they mean by a perfect pairing.
See you at the finish line, .

Relay legs are temporary.
That finish-line smile lasts a whole lot longer. 😄

Four weeks from today.
Right now, this is just the proof of the 2026 Zilker Relays shirt.
But let's be real: a flat shirt proof can only do so much.
Add four teammates, a Friday night in Zilker, a little sweat, a sunset, and a baton...
You're going to make it look good.
Four weeks until the real thing.
And a big thank you to all the partners on the back helping make this year's Zilker Relays happen.
