Cascade Lakes Relay - Bend, Oregon, June 25–26, 2027
The Cascade Lakes Relay is a multi-leg team relay held in Central Oregon. The course begins at Diamond Lake Resort, passes through the Cascade Mountains and the Oregon Outback, moves through rural agricultural country, returns along the Cascade Lakes Highway around Mt. Bachelor, and finishes in the resort community of Bend. The event includes evening and overnight elements such as a kickoff BBQ at Diamond Lake and a finish line festival at Riverbend Park.
The event offers three course options:
- CLR 36 - 216.6 miles, 36 legs, 8 to 12 runners
- CLR 24 - 132 miles, 24 legs, 8 to 12 runners
- Walk Relay - 94 miles, 18 legs, 6 to 12 runners
Teams divide the numbered legs among their members; leg lengths and difficulty vary. The race schedule includes on-course exchanges and activities along the route, and teams commonly travel between exchanges by vehicle. Team captains register teams and only need to enter initial team information; all teammates must be registered by April 1 to guarantee T-shirt sizes. Registration fees are due in full at the time of registration and team registration is non-refundable once accepted. Changes to division, team name, or captain can be made before the race and bib information should be finalized by June 1.
Cascade Relays operates a foundation that supports local Central Oregon charities and reports more than $890,000 given since 2008. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
