The Seneca7 is a relay race on Sunday, April 26, 2026, that makes a counter-clockwise circumnavigation of Seneca Lake of about 77.7 miles. The course starts and finishes at the New York Welcome Center on Lakefront in Geneva, NY, and passes vineyards, small towns, a waterfall in Hector, and state park areas such as Sampson. The race fields teams of seven runners. Race materials include a course map, GPX file, a detailed course guide, chip timing, finisher medals, post-race food, and seven shirts.

Registration and logistics

Registration uses a captain-first process: captains register and pay for the full relay, then share a team link for members to join. Key registration windows in 2025 include early captain registration in late October, open captain registration on October 31, charity captain registration on November 1, and team member registration beginning November 2. The open registration had a starting cap of 250 teams and the charity registration had a cap of 16 teams. Team member entries must be completed by March 26 or the team may be removed and the waitlist used. Packet pick-up is the day before the race at the Finger Lakes Welcome Center from 10:30 to 14:30; at least one team member must attend and there is no race-day pickup. Registration fees and refund rules vary; the event notes that refunds, rollovers, and transfers are generally not available, with limited exceptions under specified conditions.
