26 x 1-Mile Marathon Relay

26 x 1-Mile Marathon Relay is a team-running event held at The Woodlands in South Philadelphia on September 13, 2025. Teams of six to thirteen runners tackle a 26-mile relay by running a sequence of one-mile legs on a wooded trail loop through The Woodlands, featuring a dirt path with some paved road sections. The event emphasizes teamwork and a festive, club-oriented atmosphere as a self-timed competition.

Each team designs a baton for handoffs, and a champion finishes the final 0.2 miles to complete the official marathon, carrying a self-made torch. Proceeds support The Woodlands, and Philly Running Alliance runs the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
