Cascade Lakes Relay
The Cascade Lakes Relay takes place June 25 to 26, 2027 in Bend, Oregon. The event is a multi-leg running relay offered in three course options:
- CLR 36: 216.6 miles, 36 legs, 8 to 12 runners
- CLR 24: 132 miles, 24 legs, 8 to 12 runners

The full course begins at Diamond Lake Resort in the Cascade Mountains, travels through the Oregon Outback and rural agricultural areas, follows the Cascade Lakes Highway around Mt. Bachelor, and finishes in the resort community of Bend. CLR 36 runs from Diamond Lake to Bend, CLR 24 starts near Silver Lake, and the Walk Relay starts at Willow Butte. Legs vary in length and difficulty and are divided among team members.
Event weekend features described by the organizer include a kickoff barbecue at Diamond Lake, nighttime activities including a midnight rave, and a finishline festival at Riverbend Park with music and food. Teams register under a team captain; registration fees are due in full at the time of registration, registration is non-refundable once accepted, and teammates should be registered by April 1 to guarantee T-shirt sizes. Cascade Relays supports more than 20 local charities through the Cascade Relays Foundation, which has distributed over $890,000 since 2008.
