Welcome to Ragnar Relay Lake Tahoe

What is RAGNAR and what am I

getting myself into?

Ragnar is an overnight running relay race and camping adventure that makes testing your limits a team sport.

NEED MORE ? Well of course you do!

7 of your crazier friends + you = 8 Each runner will run 3 different loops = Green, Yellow, and Red Green Loop = 3.1 miles Yellow Loop – 6.9 miles Red Loop = 5.5 miles For a total of 15.5 run miles Each team will collectively do 120+ miles in a 24+ hour timespan

Still have more questions….No problem!

In 2013, 106 teams registered for Ragnar Lake Tahoe. That’s 850+ runners in one village! Can you say “Tent City”?!

Each team needs to have an average pace of 11 minutes per mile (pace can range anywhere from a 9 minute pace per mile to approximately 12:30 minute pace per mile).

Runnin for Rhett would like to match runners up who share the same pace per mile so that you can run the trails together.

What does this mean exactly?

It means you can run with your friends! Each runner with the same pace will be placed on different teams but assigned the same runner number.

Example: Beth, Karin, Randy, and Paul will be Runner # 2 but each of them are on different teams. When Runner # 2 begins their loop, they will all start off together. When they are done they will tag Runner # 3s to begin their loop, and so on…..

Not a fast runner ?

Don’t sweat it….

• Teams must register by March 20th before the cost increases!

• 1 volunteer per team is needed. That person can be a non runner, 16+ years or older , and must complete a 4 hour shift. If a team can’t supply a volunteer, then a team must pay the $120 volunteer fee (divided by 8 is $15 per runner = $159.55). Teams can decide this later.
