Top of ZZZZZion Sleep Relay gives you the best of both worlds — epic views by day, sleep by night!
This unique relay option lets you run alongside all the 2 and 3-Day relay teams enjoying the energy of all the runners, take in the same incredible scenery, and still enjoy a full night’s rest.
No all-nighters here!
HOW IT WORKS:
Day 1 – Start with the other 2 and 3-Day relay runners, running legs 1–12 .
After that, you’re done for the day! Kick back, enjoy a warm meal, go for a hike in a National Park and then drive along and enjoy the views of the scenic route the full relay teams will conquer that night and head to a cozy hotel at, or near, exchange 24 and enjoy a hot shower and comfy bed!
Day 2 – The next morning, arrive at Exchange 24 and start with the 1 and 3 Day Relay runners and run legs 24–36, finishing with the rest of the relay runners. Start time TBD. Make sure to check in with the Exchange Captain and let them know you have arrived.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner or a first-time relay warrior, the Sleep Relay is your chance to experience the magic of the Top of Zion — without the midnight miles!
